EC 250

Purpose-built to dominate mid-size woods riding, the 2025 GasGas EC 250 fuses nimble agility with commanding two-stroke performance. Its lightweight frame and sharp in-mold red graphics deliver both trail presence and durability, while its trail-focused ergonomics invite the rider into a confident, race-ready posture. Whether you’re threading through tight singletrack or powering through open forests, the EC 250 is engineered to spark excitement from the first twist of the grip, every time.


Effortless Engine & Rider Control Heart and soul of the bike is its 249 cc two-stroke motor, equipped with a precise throttle-body injection system and managed by a smart electronic control unit that balances fuel and ignition for smooth, controllable power. Start-up is quick and hassle-free thanks to the lightweight electric starter, while the wide-ratio six-speed transmission offers flexibility across terrain and the hydraulic clutch provides consistent engagement and minimal lever fatigue. This focused powertrain setup lets riders challenge their limits without compromise, delivering a balance of speed, responsiveness, and rideability.

Chassis That Shifts the Trail Built on a central double-cradle steel frame with an aluminum subframe, the EC 250 balances rigidity with lightweight handling for precise control in all conditions. Suspension duties fall to WP XPLOR USD forks and a WP XACT rear shock—each offering 300 mm of travel to confidently absorb trail chatter and technical obstacles. The frame design, combined with grippy contact areas and durable components, allows the rider to rail corners, soak up roots, and push hard through uneven terrain with a bike that feels intuitive and uncompromising.

Trail-Ready Practicality & Design Weighing in at just 107.6 kg dry and featuring a 9-liter tank, the EC 250 is balanced for long days in the saddle, offering nimble manners and ideal mass centralization. Practical touches like mud-shedding footpegs, high-performance brakes with large discs, and easy-access filters ensure reliability when the ride gets tough. The combination of race-proven hardware, rider-focused ergonomics, and trail-ready durability makes the EC 250 a potent and practical companion for any off-road adventure, from weekend fun to competition-level challenges.
