I bought my KHS Mocha today, and pick it up tomorrow... I'd love to correspond with you and trade notes about the experience.
 
Tx,

Hi, Michael, and welcome to RBENT!!!
 
According to my BikeJournal logs, I've put about 170 miles on the Mocha since winning my argument with DART...   Smiley    It's been a pretty handy bike to have, especially since my work commute is only 2 miles one way.  I replaced the original seat with a differently-padded Schwinn that I got at Target.
 
It's been trouble-free, and I haven't even lubed the chain yet.  It's no speed demon, I probably don't get much over 10mph even in top gear, but I didn't buy it for speed.
 
Overall, I'm happy with it -- wish it were lighter, but it's not, and I didn't want to spend $1000 on a folder.
