KTM X-STRADA 30

The 2022 KTM X-STRADA 30 is a versatile gravel bike that stands out for its high-quality components and robust materials. The frame is made from a 28" 6061 GRAVEL / R-2070 alloy, which is renowned for its strength and durability. Weighing 11 kg and with a maximum load capacity of 130 kg, this model offers a balanced combination of lightness and stability.

Braking performance is provided by Tektro MD-C550 disc brakes, which ensure reliable deceleration in a variety of conditions. Gear shifting is handled by the Sram RIVAL RD-RIV-D1, whilst the Sram Rival SB-RIV-B1-11 shift levers ensure precise gear changes. The X-STRADA 30 has a total of 11 gears, allowing for flexible adaptation to different types of terrain.

The rigid aluminium fork contributes to the bike’s stiffness, which is particularly advantageous on challenging rides over uneven terrain. The SRAM S650 EAGLE crankset, with a 38T chainring, and the SRAM PG-1130-11 cassette, with a 11–42T range, offer a wide gear ratio range. The drivetrain is completed by the SRAM SPC-1110 chain.

The KTM COMP Race Bar handlebars and the orange VLT-5102 T3mm grips ensure comfortable handling and control. The KTM COMP stem, with a 7° angle, and the RITCHEY Zero Logic PRESS FIT 1-1/8" headset contribute to the stability and precision of the steering.

The bike is fitted with SCHWALBE G-ONE BITE Perf tyres featuring RaceGuard technology in size 45-622, which provide optimum grip and puncture protection at both the front and rear. The wheelsets consist of KTM Line rims combined with Shimano Tourney hubs (HB-TX505 CL 32H 100 QR at the front and FH-TX505-8 CL 32H 135 QR at the rear) and Pillar 2.0 INOX spokes in black.

The KTM LINE SPORT saddle and the KTM COMP seatpost, with a diameter of 27.2 mm, offer additional comfort whilst riding. The KTM X-STRADA 30 is available at a price of 1299 EUR and is an excellent choice for gravel bike enthusiasts who value quality and performance.
