We have only ridden the KTM Freeride E-XC around the house and this is our first time actually getting the KTM dirty.

We tested it out on loose rock, sand, and solid rock. The WP Suspension on the KTM Freeride E-XC is really good and soaks up the chatter and square edges.

Its a totally different experience when riding the KTM Freeride E-XC with no noise. The power on the E-XC is decent but I wouldn't say it rips your arms off.

The Freeride E-XC feels light and nimble even though it tips the scale at 244 lbs.

As to be expected the brakes are excellent. KTM has built a very balanced dirt bike.

There are a few things that we will need to get used to on the 2020 KTM Freeride E-XC.
