The LIFE TRACK is fitted with Schwalbe HURRICANE K-Guard 42-622 700x40C tyres at the front and rear, which are renowned for their durability and good grip. The wheelset consists of KTM Line - Shimano HB-TX505 32H CL QR hubs and Remerx TOP DISC 32H 622x19 rims, combined with silver RM 2.0 INOX spokes, making for a robust and reliable wheel combination.

The saddle is a KTM Line Offroad, which, together with the KTM Line seatpost (27.2/350), ensures a comfortable riding position. A practical feature is the adjustable KTM REAR kickstand, which is suitable for bikes from 26" to 29" and makes it easier to park the bike.
