I rely on this bike for my daily commute throughout Los Angeles and have explored many of the singletrack trails and fire roads in the mountains of both Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties on it. My long distance ride adventures have taken me to Altadena, Mt Wilson, Santa Monica Mountains, Mailbu, Monrovia, Etiwanda Mountains, Wrightwood, Cajon Pass trails, Crestline, Big Bear to Victorville and back to L.A. while also commuting back and forth to DTLA from Beverly Hills.The KHS Tempe has become an essential part of my cycling experience. It climbs with ease and lets me reach impressive speeds. Its lightweight frame ensures comfort with every pedal stroke. As KHS premier XC sport mtb bike, it’s truly worth every penny. I also used it several times on it bike packing Big Bear to Wrightwood, etc. This bike makes heads turn because it’s so beautiful. This was my upgrade from a 2013 KHS Winslow. I rode my Winslow like my Tempe. All over the place!

This hard tail bike is one of the best investments I made for trail riding. I enjoy riding this bike and I love the way the geometry feels. I did my research shopping for a bike with so many to choose from. I decided to purchase the KHS Tempe. Best decision I made. Before and after I placed my order, Logan was helpful with assisting me with all the questions I had. If you’re looking for a mountain bike with superior components to ride on the trails then this is the bike you need.
