It seems like KTM has tried hard for years to get into the mountain bike market but they can't ever get a foothold here in the US anyway. They sponsor some successful riders who have had really great results domestically but that is literally the only time I have ever seen any of their bikes, never once on any trails from a non sponsored rider. Wonder why that is?

I think this rings true do to a lack of dealers in North America. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them start showing up here and there.

REI failed KTM in the US market. It’s time for a US distro to pick them up. XC bikes look on point
