After turning pro in 2020, Mumford has shown flashes of real speed with several top-10 finishes and a few top-5s along the way. However, injuries have often slowed his momentum. Now, the California native is looking for a fresh start with AEO Powersports KTM, one of the most promising teams on the rise.
This move also marks a new chapter for Mumford, as it’ll be his first time aboard an Austrian brand after previous stints with Honda, Suzuki, and Kawasaki.
