KTM Freeride E-SM (Electric)
-
Finally ordered a set of off road wheels for it yesterday. Had to shell out a very unfriendly price of £700 with tyres.. Madness! But you just can't get the Freeride series wheels in used condition yet. They are a very odd combination of hubs similar to the tiny KTM 85 bikes (20mm rear spindle), laced onto normal sized rims. Only SM Pro or genuine KTM parts are available. So I went for SM Pro Platinum orange hubs and nipples, with stainless spokes and black rims. Should look nice!

Dude you are savage.
What do you do for a living, and can i do it lmao. That was a joke btw.
Mate it's an investment, you only live once so go out and enjoy it. Oncr you are finished I am sure you wilk have no problems selling those itens.
Throw some photos uo asap though. Sounds lush

Funnily enough Calum, you are probably more qualified to be doing my job than I am aha! Currently an apprentice software developer working mainly with web based apps. Crap money at the mo, but I just don't spend it on anything else. When I move out, I'll probably have to sell the lot.. So best make the most of it!!

So I ordered the wheels from SMPro on eBay and paid an additional £15 for them to include and fit rim tape and rim locks, so all that was needed was for me to fit the tyres. The wheels and tyres arrived today..

@MIGHTYMAN FYI dude - There's normally an option to have the rims predrilled. Looking damn sweet tho and this will be you pretty soon I'm sure, buzzing around the woods;
