Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Manuel Lettenbichler is back at full strength and ready to chase a fourth consecutive FIM Hard Enduro World Championship title in 2025. The German rider overcame a mid-season knee injury last year and now enters the season determined to maintain his dominance across the intense seven-round calendar and iconic extreme events like Red Bull Erzbergrodeo and Red Bull Romaniacs.
Lettenbichler, known to fans as “Mani”, enters the new season with confidence and momentum. His 2023 campaign saw him complete a flawless season. On the other hand, 2024 tested his resilience as he bounced back from injury to clinch his third straight title. Now fully recovered from the setback that kept him out of SuperEnduro, he’s laser-focused on staying at the top.

“I’m feeling super positive going into round one this weekend,” said Lettenbichler. “The team has done a great job with the bike, and I’ve done the work to make sure I’m in top form. The goal is the same — win races and take home another title.”
Riding the KTM 300 EXC CHAMPION EDITION, Lettenbichler will open his 2025 campaign at the Valleys Hard Enduro in the UK. The championship then heads to the USA for Silver Kings in June. The season is then followed by Abestone (Italy), Hixpania (Spain), and Sea to Sky (Turkey). His home race at GetzenRodeo (Germany) takes place in October. Finally, the season will conclude at the Roof of Africa in Lesotho in November.
Alongside the world championship, Mani will defend his titles at Erzbergrodeo and Romaniacs, two of the sport’s most gruelling and prestigious standalone events.
With fitness regained and motivation high, Lettenbichler is once again the rider to beat in the world of extreme enduro. As the gates drop this weekend, all eyes will be on the reigning champ to see if he can continue his legacy of off-road excellence.
