KHS Urban Soul (PreOrder)

City Simplicity.

The Urban Soul is built around a lightweight but resilient High-Tensile Steel frame. While aluminum can feel harsh on potholed city streets, the steel frame of the Urban Soul offers a natural damping quality, soaking up road vibrations for a smoother ride. With its "Flip-Flop" rear hub, the bike gives you the freedom to choose your riding style: run it as a Single-Speed for easy coasting, or flip the wheel to ride Fixed-Gear for total control and a true track-bike feel.

Why the Urban Soul is the Perfect City Companion:

• Low-Maintenance Drivetrain: By eliminating derailleurs, shifters, and multiple cables, the Urban Soul removes the most common points of failure. It’s a bike that’s always ready to roll, requiring nothing more than an occasional chain lube.

• Flip-Flop Rear Hub: Flexibility is key. The bike comes stock with both a 16T freewheel and a 16T fixed cog. You can switch between a relaxing commute and an aggressive, connected training ride in minutes.

• Nimble Handling Geometry: Inspired by classic track bikes but adjusted for the street, the Urban Soul features a slightly more upright position than a pure racer. This gives you better visibility in traffic while remaining "darty" enough to weave through congested lanes.

• Resilient Steel Frame: The TIG-welded steel construction is designed to handle the daily abuse of urban life. From being locked to metal posts to navigating rough alleyways; all while providing a compliant, comfortable ride.

• Dual-Pivot Caliper Brakes: Unlike many budget fixed-gear bikes, the Urban Soul comes equipped with front and rear alloy dual-pivot brakes, ensuring you have reliable, predictable stopping power in all weather conditions.

• Deep-Dish Alloy Rims: The 42mm deep-section rims aren't just for a stealthy, aerodynamic look; they provide extra stiffness and durability, helping the wheels stay true even after hitting an unexpected city pothole.

The Alegro Perspective: The Urban Soul is a "classic" for a reason. In our shop, we see riders buy these for their first commute and still be riding them five years later. It captures that iconic "fixie" aesthetic but remains approachable for everyone. It’s light enough to carry up into an apartment, tough enough to live outside a cafe, and honestly, it’s one of the most fun bikes you can ride for under $600.
