Small and mighty! It's our smallest 4-stroke but make no mistake, in the right hands, it's a world beater... just ask EnduroGP World Champ, Andrea Verona! Built using much of the tech found on Verona's very own race bike, the EC 250F really is a stunner with its vibrant red bodywork and competition-focused components creating a bike that truly excels when ridden hard. Stable at high speed and nimble in the tight and technical going, the EC 250F is as good as it gets when it comes to serious offroad fun.
BODYWORK - Redesigned bodywork offers improved ergonomics, featuring larger contact surfaces and an optimized rider triangle for enhanced control. The rad shrouds aid in gripping the bike while accelerating, accompanied by a highly grippy seat cover to maintain positioning.
EXHAUST SYSTEM - Our exhausts combine enduro-specific power with competition compliance, adhering to FIM sound regulations. 4-stroke header pipes, tightly wrapping around the motor, optimize performance at minimal weight. Two-piece design allows easy removal without rear shock disassembly. The rear features a compact aluminum silencer with a raw finish, prepared for eventual scratches.
AIRBOX - The airbox simplifies filter maintenance, promoting quick changes through a tool-free system. Precisely positioned inlet ducts direct airflow to the Twin Air filter, maximizing horsepower.
NEKEN HANDLEBAR, GRIPS, THROTTLE ASSEMBLY - Neken handlebars, ODI grips, and an improved throttle assembly enhance riding comfort and control. Redesigned bar mounts reduce resistance to twisting, while lock-on style, medium compound ODI grips cater to diverse riders. A stronger, impact-resistant throttle housing bolsters durability.
FUEL TANK - The new fuel tank with a nine-liter capacity maintains a slim profile. Transparent polythene construction facilitates fuel level monitoring, and a threaded filler cap ensures secure sealing. An integrated fuel pump enables extended rides without refueling concerns.
FOOTPEGS - Amplified footpeg platforms offer superior control, supported by an inward frame placement to prevent catching in challenging terrains.
2024 FRAME - Retaining the agility and stability of its predecessor, the new frame advances handling. Enhanced anti-squat behavior boosts traction, while selective wall thickness adjustments improve rider feedback and energy absorption. The frame sports a robust red powder coating with protective guards that also enhance boot grip.
SUBFRAME - The lightweight, all-aluminum subframe synergizes with the new frame, centralizing mass and elevating handling excellence.
FORGED TRIPLE CLAMPS - Freshly designed forged aluminum triple clamps offer optimal flex via a modified steering stem. These clamps align fork tubes precisely for smoother action, enhancing front wheel feedback and ensuring consistent handling. Adjustable bar mounts with increased contact area minimize bar twisting, and a glass bead blasted finish maintains their appearance.
WP FORKS - Updated WP XPLOR Open Cartridge forks retain the trusted design but feature refined settings for improved performance. Longer fork legs enhance bike balance, and manual adjustment for rebound and compression allows easy tuning.
WP SHOCK - The new WP XACT rear shock is shorter and lighter yet offers 300mm travel. Technical upgrades, including a new piston, enhance initial comfort and maintain shock position during hard acceleration. Hand-adjustable like the forks, quick tuning is at your fingertips.
SWINGARM - Cast from a single aluminum piece, the new swingarm is lighter and slightly stiffer. A sturdier chain slider and rounded guide prevent ground contact in rugged conditions. A 22mm rear wheel axle complements refined chassis flex. Clear chain adjustment markings facilitate swift maintenance.
MOTOR
2024 EC 250F MOTOR - Fully redesigned for 2024, the EC 250F motor is lighter and faster, with refined components maximizing power and torque. Positioned slightly tilted inside the frame for mass centralization, it enhances handling.
CYLINDER & PISTON - The 2024 model features a new cylinder and CP piston, with an 81mm wider bore and 48.5mm stroke, increasing compression ratio to 14.4:1 for heightened torque and peak power.
CYLINDER HEAD - Redesigned DOHC cylinder head optimizes power across the rev range. Larger exhaust valves enhance breathing, while DLC-coated finger followers minimize friction for maximum performance.
COUNTER BALANCER SHAFT - The multifunctional counter balancer shaft counters crankshaft rotational force, reducing vibration while driving the water pump and timing chain.
CRANKCASE & CRANKSHAFT - Lightweight, thin-wall crankcases are produced via high-pressure die casting, centralizing mass for improved ride dynamics. The EC 250F's crankshaft centralizes oscillating masses, with plain big end bearings and force-fitted bearing shells ensuring durability and 135-hour service intervals.
DDS CLUTCH - The Dampened Diaphragm Steel (DDS) clutch offers precise control, featuring a single diaphragm steel pressure plate and damping system for enhanced traction and durability. A Braktec hydraulic master cylinder ensures smooth, progressive lever action.
TRANSMISSION - A new 6-speed wide-ratio Pankl Racing Systems transmission suits enduro conditions, balancing durability with reliability. Refinements in shifting mechanism improve ease of use, while a new gear lever prevents dirt buildup.
PARTS
BRAKTEC BRAKES - GASGAS enduro bikes feature top-quality BRAKTEC brake calipers and controls to ensure efficient braking. Equipped with a 260mm front and 220mm rear disc, the braking system delivers impressive performance, inspiring riders to ride more aggressively and brake confidently.
BRAKTEC HYDRAULIC CLUTCH - GASGAS enduro bikes boast BRAKTEC brake calipers and controls for impressive braking with 260mm front and 220mm rear disks, instilling confidence in deceleration.
RADIATORS - Efficient cooling systems eliminate excess hoses, enhancing ergonomics. High-strength aluminum radiators, situated close to the center of gravity, contribute to optimal handling.
WHEELS - Robust silver CNC machined hubs, lightweight spokes, and durable EXCEL rims offer strength and durability, capable of enduring tough impacts and tracks.
TIRES - Continuing from the previous generation, Maxxis MaxxEnduro tires provide versatility and durability across terrains, minimizing tire changes.
ELECTRONICS
LED LIGHT - The updated bodywork includes an all-new LED headlight, nearly three times brighter, providing superior nighttime visibility. A two-piece design enables individual replacement of damaged components.
ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (EMS) - The compact and swift Engine Management System continually optimizes motor performance, allowing riders to focus on the trail. A rollover sensor halts the motor if the bike overturns, enhancing safety.
THROTTLE BODY - The 4-stroke enduro bikes use a 42mm Keihin throttle body for instant response. The throttle cable's direct mount without a linkage further ensures efficiency. Precise injector placement maximizes combustion chamber flow, ensuring peak performance.
MAP SELECT SWITCH - The redesigned Map Select Switch offers two maps for adaptable power delivery. Map 1 suits technical sections with mellow power, while Map 2 excels in muddy and soft conditions with direct response.
OCU - The new Offroad Control Unit streamlines electrical components, replacing relays and fuses. It's safely positioned under the seat, and a color-changing LED promptly alerts riders to electrical issues for quick diagnosis and resolution.
HAPPY BUTTON - Equipped with an electric starter powered by a lightweight Li-Ion battery, the GASGAS effortlessly starts every time. This electric start feature maintains low overall bike weight, combining convenience with efficiency.
