It's not the first KHS SS I've enquired about though. I still want a cheap-ish xc-duallie/trail bike.. cheers! hipp - |

Looks good ... and I did get the impression that the bik had never seen a trail before at the time The only thing I was disappointed with was that the bike used a surl tensioner ... other then that, seems like a good bike for a great price Cheers Koo - |

I didn't realise at the time but it is a softtail KHS, with the small shock built in to the the seatstays. Probably great for my back but I am wary of them. Not my favourite thing, lets say.. hippy -- |

I think they do a good job filling the gap between a hardtail and a full sus. Koon -- |

SS should be full rigid! Nah.. um.. it's just something to go wrong. Susp. forks are pretty well sorted but I'm not sure about these little jiggers on the rear of the KHS. It's probably an uninformed reaction but I just figure on buying a rigid, a HT or a FS.. not something in between. I'd really like a 'proper' FS for my next off-road vehicle.. hippy -- |

Man, I crash quite enough just riding a rigid SS, or a HT for that matter! Off-road fixie is somewhere I'm never going to go - I'm just not good enough to need that extra challenge. The SS isn't any more challenging to ride other than physical effort. An off-road fixie though is more 'technically' challenging.. too much for me hippy -- |
