Best bike for trail riding! Husqvarna 701 Enduro vs GasGas EC300 vs Yamaha Wr250f | KNOX armour
Best trail riding dirt bike Husqvarna 701 Enduro vs GasGas EC 300 vs Yamaha Wr250f

Amongst riding all types of road bikes and on track, we’re avid off road trail riders here at Knox. Luckily, we’ve got the beautiful English Lake District as our backdrop and it’s also home to some excellent legal trails. And it’s that setting that makes the context of this test, legal trail riding.
Our typical Lake District trail ride involves quite a wide range terrain, from flat and easy stuff perfect for adventure bikes to tougher sharp rocky sections with inclines, and of course the sections of road the join the trails together. That makes choosing the best bike to tackle the job a largely subjective and personal choice. For example a KTM 150 2 stroke is the lightest road legal option available but hard work on tarmac roads, a 250kg adventure bike, great on the road and easy terrain, but the hard stuff… well rather you than me.
So in this test, we put both of our own Husqvarna 701 Enduro and Yamaha WR250f into the ring alongside a guest, the GasGas EC300. All bikes immensely capable in their own right and would rightly be considered by any trail rider. But which one comes out on top!
