TLD KTM TEAM MAKES SWTICH TO GASGAS AS THEIR 250/450 FACTORY EFFORT IN 2021

The Troy Lee Designs KTM will be riding GasGas machines for 2021. 

During the GasGas 2021 model presentation this morning where 19 new models were released, via Microsoft teams, John Hinz, CEO of GasGas America brought on Troy Lee. They announced that the TLD SX/MX team will be making the switch from KTM to GasGas for the 2021 racing year. For the TLD team, it is a good match as they are already familiar with the KTM platform, which is the Husky and now GasGas platform as well. However, the big difference will be the signing of a 450 effort. Roger DeCoster confirmed with us that Justin Barcia has signed with the GasGas TLD team for 2021. Does this mean that Justin will ditch the Alpinestars gear and wear TLD next year? We have to assume so as TLD is the 250/450 factory effect for GasGas.

Troy Lee will be the team owner. 

Tyler Keefe will remain as the team manager.
