With the road bike already boasting sporty credentials, the Junior Cup version takes it to the next level with changes such as fully adjustable WP Suspension, upgraded braking and a big reduction in weight with the removal of unnecessary road equipment. The complete package of the series allows riders to learn all the fundamental skills on and off track.

All bike parts are available as KTM PowerParts and the fully adjustable suspension package not only allows for individual set up for each race; it is also a valuable learning tool for suspension setup. The bike has adjustable foot pegs and handlebar levers to fit different ergonomics, making it ideal for young talent that is still growing.

Series sponsors stickers are concentrated on the front of the bike, leaving the tail and belly pan free for rider personalisation or personal sponsors. As you would expect, the series will also deliver a comprehensive TV and media package.
