Readers opinion | Why I switched from a KTM Freeride E-XC to an Alta Redshift EX
As I began preparing for my next endurocross event, I found myself contemplating the purchase of a new bike. Being relatively new in the world of enduro racing, I had a 2015 KTM Freeride E-XC.

Since I was becoming more interested and involved in endurocross, I figured it was worth it to make the change but I’d have to do some thorough research before I decided to throw money down on a brand new motorcycle.
