This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.10" KHS tires and Black spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Weinmann alloy, 32-hole. KHS equiped this exact model with Bengal Cable Disc brakes, Alloy linear levers braking system and Alloy Disc QR hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride KHS used Hydraformed 7005 Alloy material for the frame. Alloy high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Alite 500 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Alloy 4-bolt.
