    KHS Montana Comp

    It also looks about 3 sizes too big for me!

    KHS Montana Comp

    Realistically I'm not in market for another bike, especially not a KHS, with 5 KHS in total as I searched for a '93 Team I felt that was done once I built one. The hobby of restoring bikes has generally moved to a hobby of riding them again now. My wife would divorce me if I tried to spend hours...

    KHS Montana Comp

    You don't see many 1991 specs of these. Everybody knows the 1993s (I have 2 comps and a Team from '93) but I'm not sure I've ever seen a '91. I feel like I'm missing a bike now

    '93 KHS Montana Team FXT

    Ok, two things, firstly I'd forgotten about these too, such a mad design, glad this popped up. Secondly, I was in Arnham cycling last month (road sportive, for my sins) and didn't know this museum existed, bu99er!

    Sold Orange P7 1994 Amazing Condition 🤩

    Not sure if you sold this, but extending the brake hoses is an easy job. If they haven't been serviced, they probably want as much work as it would take to extend the hoses anyway (given the hardest, but not hard, part is draining, filling, bleeding). Also, I'd have bitten their hand off at £300...

    1993 KHS Montana Team & Montana Comp

    You want to try have five, three in that paint scheme, two in the 94 grey :) I love these bikes (obvs from the above) so great to see two more being saved!

    KHS Montana Comp Build

    That QR is the only piece I never sourced for my nut/bolt restoration Comp. Found a similar modern one but it doesn’t have the rubber sleeve.

    KHS Montana Comp Build

    Yeah, you’re right. Looked at a reference photo and it was silver but I guess it’s not original. Catalog clearly says black. Odd choice for a silver stem. I run a modern setup on mine which is all silver for what I thought was correct, ah well.

    KHS Montana Comp Build

    On the saddle; I did manage to find one, but from a riding point of view just note they are very narrow, if you’re planning to ride it all day I’d go with a Flight 😉

    KHS Montana Comp Build

    The handlebars are right, they were silver on the team, black on the comp. You’re right about the cantis, look so much better.

    My '93 KHS Montana Trilogy

    Been away from the forum a few months but I too love your channel and your love for these bikes. As somebody also with a trilogy of 93s (and a brace of 94s, both of which are just frames right now though) it’s great to see you championing them!

    KHS Montana Comp Build

    Watching the Tour de France this year made me smile to see it's taken the roadie scene 29 years and an expensive collaboration to realise how awesome this colour scheme was...

    KHS Montana Comp Build

    Those grips are definitely the originals. This is the only bike I have ever bought new so I can be 100% sure. I will be following this with a lot of interest!

    Show me your KHS.

    Nice. I’ve now added a genuine 1993 Team to the family, bringing my KHS collection to 5: 3 built up (all 93) and two frames (both 94), two Teams (93 and 94) and three Comps (my own original 93, another 93 and a 94). The garage photo was before a build swap back to original, hence the blue/pink...

    KHS Montana Team 1993

    This is the same frame I bought, only took 18 months to come around! Shows how few there are!
