KHE presented a couple of new products at the Eurobike last weekend. Here is a 2009 roundup:
Paris III Frame
Once again the Paris frame became a little bit lighter. New weight: 1530 g = 3.37 lbs
Equilibrium 2009
For 2009 there will be a optimized edition with new features like removeble pivots, gyrotabs and cablehangers - and of course a better weight: 2120 g = 4.67 lbs
Minimalism Stem
New clamping system and steel inserts.
Tanaka LT
The lower price version of the Tanaka. Cheaper but still made of CrMo. The regular Tanaka will still be available.
Seatclamp: Nice and slim.
Furthermore there will be a Militant complete bike line with different versions:
Militant AM: the beginners will be gifted with an f-set.
Militant LT: for the upcoming talents.
Militant Pro: the usual high end standard.
Last but not least the Paris 3 complete.

they made the paris frame even lighter , looks like a like of new broken frames . but the militant pro does look pretty dop though
-
it all looks pretty sweet to me. lets not jump to conclusion i would hope they learn from mistakes from each previous model while also learning new techniques to make there frames lighter and hopefully more dependable
-
what about bounce bars :huh:
-
V3 looks way more solid than the V2. Are they selling the militant separately?
-
Complete stealth's...didn't see that coming.
I've been trying to check out the Tanaka LT but, no luck. Is anyone else having this problem?
-
ya theres no picture for them , they probably look the same but just a little beefier , but the paris 3 is way too amall now wasnt the paris 1 like 18. 7 tt and 12.5 cs or some shyt , but i do like that militant complete
-
I already asked KHE for a photo of the Tanaka LT ...

Photo added .. thanks to Thierry for sending it ..
-
those look dope as f*ck , kinda like a slimmer version of the director forks but zero offset, are tanka LTs more narrow thatn before ,like the badforks or is the picture just at a wierd angle
-
woww.. nice stuff.. completess look amazing
i found my new fork, and frame for next spring!.. :D
that lt and the new equilibruim looks so nicee.. cant wait
-
Any body that ever bought a stylus should be PO'd right now ;D
I wonder how much those LTnakas and militant cost EVERY body going to buy those
-
Militant Stealth with 990s ;D
-

My Stylus rocks no matter what! Haha..And yea, I think I might get my hands on the new fork. If its decenlty priced that is.. -_-
-
they should have just put the tanaka LTs on the militant pros, dialed
-
Paris III with a 11.9" back end -- I want to throw up. I never imagine flatland trends would ever turn this gay! anything below 12.5 is already super gay, how can KHE do that? :huh:
-
The Paris III - Designed for Children & Dwarves right?
-
The Paris III - don't breath on it.
-
Paris III - Please use by date printed on bottom bracket for maximum freshness. Contains no preservatives. Use only as directed. Not intended for normal flatland use or riders over 5' 6".
-
I had issues with the old minimalist stem not clamping the steerer tube well enough. Then broke one of the bolts. Well, to be fair I did ride it 2 whole sessions before getting it warranteed. No way that new one holds up!
Never liked the looks of the equilibrium. But that light grey is pretty nice.
Paris 3, stupid small. Can't even fathom riding something like that.
-
Paris III available in white like a flag signaling surrender. Irony?
-
that militant pro is sickkkkk
-
the parisIII look so sick. and the tt is perfect length for me... I like everything nice and small. If had the money i'd invest in it one day...
-
i thought about it. either that or i was gonna get the five alive complete. BUT $550 FOR THE GODDAMN FRAME ALONE!!!!!! thats like... my life savings so far
-
my current bike cost about 900 ish. the garuda frame is 550. thats literally half how much my bike cost for like a quarter of the bike? damnnnnn
-
yep Cher
that is the cost of upgrading shioot
your find out down the road!
-
the new khe fork looks like the future st martin mikado fork
fork without dropout

KHE 2009 - no more tantra??? :huh:
-
the lt model looks gd perfect for some one on a budget like me XD lol but omg why the f set on the beginer model
-
Paris III with a 11.9" back end -- I want to throw up. I never imagine flatland trends would ever turn this gay! anything below 12.5 is already super gay, how can KHE do that? :huh:
homophobic much??? ...seriously, you'd get jumped at my college by some huge lesbians for saying that....
...I like that the paris3 is so small but doesn't have to go sub 18 on the toptube, I mean i think a 17.5 ht would mess me up way more than a 11.9 cs would....
-
I smell snapping sounds all around that Paris.. hope I'm wrong.

Is York Uno getting money for every Militant frame sold? :mellow:

Is monolithic paying the riders they feature in there videos or are you just using them? :mellow:
-

My Militant is twisted to hell, and the tubing is bulging at welds, so be happy if yours is at least in good shape, haha.

The "new" Militant frame is nothing but an Ares AY EX 47 rip-off. :P ^_^
I have a hard time finding a difference in any two street frames, some flatland frames have same designs, I think we should all just get over it now, instead of whine about it everytime a new frame comes on the market.
-
no kidding al! maybe yetti was allways the one asking why chase.brandon.scott..and kevin and even leif (still to this day with his design)never got paid royalties for their efforts either sevral years ago....right?...or how day smith never got his royalties for his design in pegs witch is still used today....tk
-
i definitely like the militant pro.
