Mercier 2011 Kilo WT5 Gallery of DlGray
Think of this as a Kilo TT on steroids, a Kilo TT that's a turbo-charged, sport SUV. With this Kilo WT5 you know Wide Tires Fit up to 1.75"x29 and 700x45c. With front and rear braze-ons, you can rack it up and really haul.
This is one of the best all-season bikes you can possibly ride. Put on some 1.75" x 29er tires and run over just about anything, anytime and anywhere. Get some knobbier cross tires on there and some folks call that a "monstercross" bike.
With five gears at your fingertips, you can keep on trucking over just about any hill or dale. Your buddies on their single gear ratio fixies will wonder what is up when you pull away from them and leave them OTB.

Please Compare to Bianchi and Surly at $900+ but those don't have 5 speed rear hubs...
Direct comparison to any high quality wide-tired singlespeed bike will showcase the fantastic frame quality. At $479 delivered, there is no better value in it's class
You'll have to look hard to try to find a bike with specs as good as the WT5 for even double the price.

Questions about Sizing? Email bd4salesteam@aol.com
If you are between sizes, keep in mind the smaller one will have lower handlebars and more agile handling. The larger one will have higher handlebars but less straddle room. Your personal preferences will determine your size. The final choice is up to you.

These shipments sell out very quickly. ORDER WHEN YOU CAN
NOTE: PLEASE TIGHTEN YOUR LOCKRINGS, CRANKS, PEDALS ETC BEFORE AND AFTER EVERY RIDE. Stripped threads, cranks, pedals etc are due to those parts not being tightened enough by the rider and are not covered by warranty
An interesting track bike fact:
The Kilometre TT or 'Kilo' is three and a half laps long and is considered by many to be the most painful event in track racing. From a held start, the rider will sprint at full effort for a little over a minute.
