    No geometry is recorded for 2005 KHS AM-2000 and 2006 KHS AM-2000.

  2. Identity & price

    2005 KHS AM-2000 had an original MSRP $200 lower than 2006 KHS AM-2000.

    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.

RPM

RPM = pedal turns per minute.

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.
