6500
KHS
Trail
6500 is an alloy trail mountain bike (2024), from KHS. This model is best for a wide range of riders thanks to its fit flexibility, leaning toward a balanced riding position, and is well suited to natural trails and mixed off-road terrain. The main strengths in the metrics are strong climbing friendliness for sustained uphill riding, a comfort-leaning ride feel over longer rides, and good fit flexibility for dialing in rider position. Compared with more specialized alternatives, the compromise is less emphasis on outright speed than speed-focused builds. Compare this bike on MatchBikes.com to similar trail models.
