At first glance, the 2020 KTM Macina Prowler Sonic looks like a serious threat to the competition. The coil shock at the rear of the flagship model paired with a 180 mm fork up front hint at the bikes downhill capabilities. Thanks to the carbon fibre frame, the weight should be kept to a minimum across the range. Pricing starts at € 5,799 for the KTM Macina Prowler Master, while the flagship Sonic model will set you back by € 9,999.
For the wheels, KTM have gone fo 29ers up front and 27.5″ wheels on the rear of all the Macina Prowler models. Dubbed DIMMIX, this combination promises to combine steering precision and good rollover characteristics with agility and playful handling.
