Myroon

01

Origin

The Myroon arrived in 2013 as KTM's attempt to break into carbon XC racing. It has since become the marque's flagship non-electric mountain bike, refined across multiple generations. The 2023/2024 update brought a slacker head angle (69.5°), longer reach, and stiffer rear triangle — reflecting the broader XC trend toward trail-capable geometry. At 10.2 kg complete with XT and Mavic Crossmax wheels, the Myroon Master competes directly with Orbea Alma and Scott Scale.

The verdict

+Strengths
  • Lightweight 10.2 kg complete at XT spec — genuinely race-competitive
  • Modern 69.5° head angle adds confidence on technical descents compared to older XC bikes
  • Mavic Crossmax tubeless wheels are excellent out of the box
Weaknesses
  • 2-piston XT brakes can feel underpowered on fast, steep XC descents vs 4-piston options
  • Stiff carbon ride can be harsh on long rocky courses without a suspension seatpost
  • Premium pricing — the carbon Myroon Master sits at the top of KTM's hardtail range
