Get a better set of wheels, with saved money, and put the stock ones on a conversion. and some better cranks
unless your getting some sort of a deal on the khs like 400$ or less
I don't see the point of buying an entry level complete then putting nicer stuff on it. The crank and fork aren't going to break. It makes more sense to buy the complete bike and ride it mostly stock, otherwise just do a build from the ground up and don't waste your money on the unnecessary parts.
The Messenger comes with brakes, so if you just want something cheap, stock and ready to ride it's probably better for you than the Kilo TT. My friend has one and I love the orange color, it's really vibrant.
