KHS Folding Bikes Taiwan
 

Testing picture upload

I guess I'll have to give up on loading even small thumbnails. It won't work for me in FF or IE or from web photos. I really wanted to post all these pics of the KHS folders, but after hours of struggle it has beaten me. Here is a link to them on web. Will someone please post them here in a reply?

Those are wonderful bikes. I more of them were available here in the US--not just the Mocha and Latte.

A couple more I missed:

My personal favourite KHS is probably the NF20-RAC
it is non-folding and (was) at the bottom of this page:

They even sell a frameset! Grrr...

I would go bananas if that "Loro Slow Spot" store was in town.
"I'll take that one, and that one, and that one..." :)

I find it amusing that the KHS Japan bikes have the American flag on them, but you can't get them in North America. What the heck?

Would anyone be interested in doing a group order?

I guess I would be more than interested if the details worked out well.

There is a fuzzy memory regarding a relatively low weight limit on the high end road bikes -- might have been for older models. Anything that suggests this is the case now?
