Found this 5 houses down from me!
KHS Comp
Shimano deore lx brakes, derailers and index shifters w/ built in brake levers
cuda handlebars
FSA headset
"moto ace" by salsa stem
true temper gold tubing frame
triple hollow speedmaster alloy rims
michelin" transworld city" tires
Rides very nice, needs a few slight adjustments, brake pads and a seat. And a bath.
Does anyone know what year it might be from. What do you guys think its worth?
Thanks for looking,
Johnny

An expensive mountain bike at the curb for the junk man. :shock: That's what I call disposable income!! :p Gary
 
I was tempted to say early 90s, but the drastically sloped top tube and what appears to be a threadless headset make me think closer to to 2000s
 
I have been keeping my eye out for something similar for a speedway bike build. The frame geometry is similar to speedway motorcycles.
 
Yeah, my neighbor down the street threw it out, along with a GT mountain bike (also in great shape). He knows i'm into bikes, why didn't he just give them to me? Too lazy to sell and too lazy to call me. Got to them at the right second, literally! A junker pulled up as soon as I got to them. The KHS rides nice. Cleaned and oiled it, aired up the tires, rides like new. SMOOOOTH!
 
Here's the GT. Nothing special, but in good shape for a curb find!
