We have three sizes in stock, small (43cm), medium (48cm) and large (53cm). Pedals are interchangeable with either a flat platform pedal or a SPD clip in style to suit your preference.

Rockshox fork on Ktm hire bike

THE DETAIL

Rockshox Suspension Fork

A Rockshox Dart 3 comes as standard on the Ultra Flite. With 4" (100mm) of smooth suspension travel the bike rides comfortably over anything the Garda trails can throw at it. A Lock out system which transforms the fork to a rigid state makes it very easy to climb the hills. When descending, just simply unlock the fork with a twist of a dial and your back to full travel.

Rear Disc Brake Mounting Rear disc mount on the KTM ULTRA FLITE Hire bike

What's really great about KTM bikes is the attention to detail. Here we can see how the disc mount is designed so as the calliper sits nicely between the chain and seat stay. Aside from looking flash, it is also functional. This system means the possibility of impact and subsequent damage in the event of a crash is greatly minimised.

The Controls Handle bar controls on KTM hire bike

Fitted with a full Shimano groupset, shifting and braking simply couldn't get and smoother. A mix of Shimano XT and Shimano Deore components combine well together. The ergonomically designed brake levers are exceptionally comfortable for the user and deliver great power and control
