DirtFirst Racing and Hollywood Movie Bikes have teamed up to offer a race ready Supermini Electric motocross bike.
The DirtFirst 2023 KTM Freeride Supermini is a revamped, MX Racer variant of the original Freeride electric off-road. The purpose-built bike will be aimed at 12-16 year-old Mini MX racers. This performance mini-bike starts as a production KTM machine that is modified to the specifications of the Team’s race-winning bikes.
The Freeride EXC is a true KTM that has been available for almost ten years, until recently solely in European markets. The Freeride has the solid reliability and worldwide parts network you would expect from any KTM product. Using the same chassis for the basis of not only the Freeride EXC, but also the Freeride 250cc and 350cc gas-powered models.
Over the last 2 years, DirtFirst Racing has race-tested and developed a bike capable of competing head-to-head with Supermini-class gas bikes in AMA competition, the unveiled results is the production KTM Freeride EXC.
The Supermini classes are traditionally the last step before racers step up to full size race bikes, and the Freeride Supermini starts to fill the gap between the smaller KTM SX5E and the full-size electric race bikes currently available.
