KTM Unveils Revolutionary 2024 SX Mini Range: Tailored for Tomorrow's Champions
Taking inspiration from the successes of its full-sized SX range, KTM is excited to introduce the 2024 KTM SX Minis, designed specifically to cater to young racers' dynamic needs.
Key Takeaways:
The 2024 KTM SX Minis are meticulously crafted based on scientific data and are tailored to young riders’ proportions and requirements.
These mini-crossers combine the essence of full-sized KTM SX machines in a scaled-down, race-ready avatar.
Revolutionary adjustable features such as suspension, handlebar position, bodywork, and subframe, make the new SX Minis adaptable to the growing needs of youngsters.
Both the KTM 50 SX and 65 SX have received significant performance and ergonomic upgrades.
The special edition 2024 KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION, wrapped in Red Bull KTM Factory Racing-inspired graphics, is set to hit the racetrack with additional high-performance components.
KTM North America has always been at the forefront of motorbike innovation. Living up to its name, the 2024 KTM SX Minis have been designed with an innovative approach. The KTM 50 SX, for instance, mirrors a full-size KTM SX but is modified to suit young riders. Right from its conception, every individual component of this mini bike was tailored to cater to the specific needs of young racers.
International test riders played a pivotal role in the evolution of the KTM 65 SX, as they tested and raced various development stages over the past two years. The outcome? A pair of mini-crossers that are not only replicas of the READY TO RACE motocross machines in appearance but also in quality and precision.
KTM ensures that as youngsters grow, their bikes grow with them. The advanced steel frame construction, which includes a two-piece subframe made of lightweight, polyamide glass fiber reinforced steel, is groundbreaking. This design ensures adjustability, letting riders tweak seat height, suspension, and handlebar position, based on their growth and comfort. Specifically, the KTM 50 SX offers seat height adjustability from 24.9 inches to 26.8 inches, while the KTM 65 SX ranges from 28.7 inches to 29.9 inches.
Performance is at the heart of these mini machines. The KTM 50 SX boasts a revamped engine with higher displacement and power, ensuring competitive performance for young racers while being versatile enough to accommodate varying skill levels. Engine enhancements, such as the new one-piece radiator and digital ignition, make it a formidable machine on the track. The KTM 65 SX, too, benefits from these upgrades, along with an airbox update, ensuring it remains a top contender in races.
Both mini-crossers are fitted with state-of-the-art suspension technology. The front boasts a 35 mm USD WP XACT AER fork, while the rear features an all-new adjustable WP XACT monoshock, ensuring perfect balance and responsiveness.
But that's not all. The 2024 KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION, a premium variant of the KTM 50 SX, is set to make its debut. Draped in a Red Bull KTM Factory Racing-inspired graphics kit and featuring an orange, high-grip diamante KTM FACTORY SEAT, this edition is not just about looks. Performance enhancements like a full FMF exhaust system and an Iridium BRISK FE-specific spark plug set it apart.
KTM’s commitment to mini-cross is evident in the 2024 KTM Sportminicycle range, mirroring the dedication seen in their full-size models. Assembled with care by the same passionate team in Austria, these bikes are ready to hit the authorized KTM dealers from November onward.
