Anyone got any news/info on the new KHS Dh bike?
New KHS
- Thread starter DHPeteinSC
- Start date
I don't have any specifics but it looks like they have TWO prototypes out there. One is a 7" travel frame that retains the Horst Link but in a different configuration than before (new version: think older Turner/Horst Link) and the other proto is a full on DH bike that is a complete departure from what they have done in the past. Not sure how much travel it has but it is a dual link frame and the lower link pivots concentric to the bottom bracket. It looks pretty sweet and I wouldn't mind finding out more about it myself. Front triangle looks pretty similar between the two however.
an old guy wannabe hipster spouting off geometry? its like the internet had an nerdgasm
Well, they got the geometry right. Looks interesting.
by giving two numbers on the bike, you can tell that?
Well this is RM, we know all these things before it happens. Geez.
That just happened!
It is sexy, just wish it didn't have that KHS logo on it..
ouch.
Whoa, whoa, wait a minute! You mean to tell me KHS didn't design this on there own?
Regardless, looks kind of cool.
Tell that to anyone who has been smoked by that old guy, esp at bootleg. Like to see you keep up Q knows his S%$T
You're right, it probably only comes with at 28 inch top tube and will be terrible... I simply meant that I liked what I heard based on the two most important geo numbers (to me anyway) and thought it looked neat. Ease up.
looks neat.
