Price Paid:  $549.00 at The Bike Peddler Bro

Favorite Ride:
khs 220

Bike Setup:
Standard 16 speed set up in a medium frame size...have added the tool kit in a seat bag...a narrow bag on the top bar snugged up to the handlebars, two cup holders, two insulated water bottles, headlight, and speedometer.

Summary:
I tried ordering a road bike from Walmart...the hub was damaged in shipping...took it back and got a flat bar bike in stock...it wouldn't shift into 7th gear-no matter how we adjusted it...Finally gave up and bought the khs 220 from the Bike Peddler in Brownwood, TX...We couldn't be happier with the bike or the dealer! Lynn went through everything about the bike with us, even how to change a flat! He also encouraged us to put together a tool kit for the new bike...Take my advice, don't buy a road bike from anything less than a bike shop...You will get what you pay for! I'm sure my hubby will be buying one from the same place...in the very near future!

Strengths:
FAST....smooth gear changes...beautiful looks....customer service from dealer... Reasonable price for us beginners into this awesome sport.

Weaknesses:
Hard, very hard saddle....I put gel cover on it hoping it will help keep me from brusing until I can get kinda used to it....

Similar Products Used:
Schwinn Prelude, GMC Denali, now am using an Electra Townie for my short runs to the store---I think the Townie and the KHS 220 give me the best of both worlds!!! Color me VERY HAPPY!
