After coming across another KHS bicycle this week and was hoping to find more info on via the WWW, I happened across this thread. Even though it's been four or so years, I just want to thank everyone who offered up insights and observations to my questions. I really appreciate all the help and knowledge given without any attitude towards this novice. It creates a great community here on the forum, and I hope that sometime in the future, I get to meet some of you and thank you in person for all good you have graciously given me throughout my years participating on this forum. Thanks once again, you make this the best of WWW for me.
