KTM’s forthcoming Prowler 29er looks so damn right
Long-travel big wheeler from Austria
Published:
Hiding behind the reflections of its own Perspex box is this exciting new 29er from KTM. The Prowler marks KTM’s entry into the world of long-travel 29ers, and it’s certainly got our attention.
The Prowler’s full carbon chassis uses a Horst linkage rear end — albeit one with an additional swing link — to deliver 150mm of travel.
Its geometry looks on point, with a 67-degree head angle, 436mm (17.2in) chainstays and a 459mm (18in) reach figure on the largest of three sizes.
It’s also Boost spaced, is designed around 1x drivetrains and includes its own adjustable chain guide.
There’s no word on this model’s availability, its weight or any further details quite yet, but we’ll be sure to bring you more as we get it.
