KTM is a cool Austrian brand making motorcycles, bikes, and getting into sports stuff. They’ve been around since way back in 1934, starting as Kronreif & Trunkenpolz Mattighofen. Now, they’re all grown up, with Pierer Mobility AG making the motorcycles and KTM Fahrrad AG handling the bikes.
What sets KTM apart is their kick-ass off-road bikes like enduro, motocross, and supermoto. But lately, they’ve also been making street bikes and even dabbling in sports cars with the X-Bow. In 2015, they were selling almost as many street bikes as off-road ones. Keep an eye on them; they’re up to some rad stuff!
