Sometimes getting a bike that you really want with all the parts you desire may only happen once or twice, if you’re lucky. Affording a new bike is one thing, but getting the accessories that make you love your bike even more is another thing. Brian Sheffer busted his butt and recently got his chance to build his dream trail bike. He chose a 2025 KTM 300 XC and methodically put the parts on it that he felt he would want for his occasional long weekend rides with friends. What is crazy is that he let me ride it before he even got a chance to swing a leg over it. Here is what I thought of Brian’s KTM 300 XC.
