Triumph’s best-in-class TF 250 and TF 450 powertrains are optimized for cross country with three specially developed engine maps, available with the accessory MX Tune Pro Module, refined torque delivery and race-ready durability. The tailored, lightweight chassis, premium suspension with cross country settings and a large 2.2 US gal (8.3 liter) fuel tank, provide even more agility and endurance. Giving racers the extra edge, top tier advanced electronics and rider aids enhance control and confidence across changing terrain.
Triumph Motorcycles’ Chief Commercial Officer, Paul Stroud, said: “Our motocross and enduro models have already made their mark on the global racing scene, earning podiums and praise in their debut seasons. With the TF 250-C and TF 450-C, we’re bringing that same competitive edge to cross country for riders in the US, Canada, France and New Zealand. These new bikes are built to highest standards and have been through relentless development and testing to deliver race-winning performance in the most demanding conditions. We’re excited to see them compete at the highest level.”
Proven power tuned for the trail
At the heart of the TF 250-C and TF 450-C are Triumph’s latest competition-developed engines, delivering best-in-class performance and power-to-weight ratios to the cross country segment.
Both models deliver smooth, controllable torque for technical terrain, linear power delivery for singletrack precision and explosive acceleration for high-speed racing. Forged aluminum pistons, DelWest titanium valves, and diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings reduce friction and enhance durability. Lightweight magnesium covers and advanced cooling systems ensure consistent performance under pressure, making these engines as resilient as they are responsive.
Engineered for precision and control, the TF 250-C features a high-revving 250cc four-stroke single producing 46.67 HP (47.3 PS) at 13,250 rpm and 20.9 lb-ft (28.3 Nm) at 9,250 rpm, making it the agile choice for riders who thrive on technical terrain and rapid transitions.
In contrast, the TF 450-C is built for riders who demand power and stamina over long, punishing stages. Its 450cc four-stroke single delivers 61.6 HP (62.4 PS) at 9,500 rpm and 36.8 lb-ft (49.9 Nm) at 7,000 rpm, with broader torque and high-revving performance that dominate steep climbs and high-speed straights.
A high-capacity clutch with hard anodized basket, hydraulic Brembo calipers and master cylinders with Galfer discs, and a five-speed gearbox with quickshifter, provide seamless control and endurance. The narrow engine design improves brake pedal interaction, giving riders the confidence to push harder across varied terrain.
