I bought a khs urban uno(similar bike) and for fun I put some drops and slapped some cross tires on it and took it on a cross course and was amazed at how well it did. Though the mud did a number on my freewheel and has never been the same since probably some cheap freewheel. Even did a few laps fixed which was intresting, great feedback on slippage.

Edit: How rude of me to talk only of my bike in a thread about your bike, sweet ride btw I seriously looked at that exact model.
