Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 2006 KHS DJ-300 and 2005 KHS DJ-300.
- Equipment
2006 KHS DJ-300 has 20 mm more front travel than 2005 KHS DJ-300 in the selected sizes.
Front travel is fork suspension stroke, not rear-wheel travel.
- Identity & price
2005 KHS DJ-300 had an original MSRP $100 lower than 2006 KHS DJ-300.
Original MSRP is the published list price when new, not today’s used-bike value.
Gearing comparison
Lower gears help on climbs. Higher gears suit higher speeds.

How it works
Ratio = front teeth ÷ rear teeth. Hub gears also include the hub’s internal ratio. A 400% range means the highest ratio is four times the lowest.
Speeds are estimates from tire size and pedal cadence. Actual speeds vary.
