Interbike 2012: KHS SixFifty608

This is KHS Bicycle’s new carbon 65b hard tail. Had a chance to ride this, wow! Climbs like a road bike on a smooth hill (that’s a good thing). Accelerates like a 26er and corners with accuracy. My favorite part of the test was using it on a BMX track at Bootleg Canyon. The bigger 650 wheels is just right, it’s quick like the 26er and smooth like a 29er.

The light carbon frame made this bike feel so nice on the trails.
