Hey,
I'm 5"10' and still growing, i was looking at the KHE Acme because it has a 21" top tube. Has anyone ever used this bike etc?

Cheers,
RP

Never used it or knew anyone with it, but just going by the specs it seems good.. Everything's full chromoly, sealed hubs, 48 spline cranks.. All good stuff. Only thing I'm skeptical on are the rims.. No idea how good those Fly Trebol ones are offhand but yeah.

Just ride em till they break. The hubs themselves seem decent since they're sealed so if anything you'll just need a rear rim later down the road but probably not for awhile unless you ride really hard

I got one but I haven't rode it very much yet. It has the affix rotor which is cool. The brake pads are crap so I replaced them with Eclat soft rubber pads. There is a front brake included but it's not of the U-brake kind so It's not very good and the fork doesn't have mounts for U-brake either. The seat and seatpost are in one piece and very uncomfortable so I replaced it with an Pivotal seat and a longer pivotal seatpost cause I want to be able to sit down once in awhile. I also replaced the handlebars with a kneesaver style 4 piece one cause I like the look. Here's a picture of my bike I know the seat color doesn't match but it was cheap. You will probably laugh at my seat height smile
Edit: I'm 6'1" btw.
