Pros: Quick steering geometry feels nimble and agile.
Cons: Can't really complain.
Time Used: More than 2 years
Comments: I bought this 99-00 bike used in 2002 for $900 (CDN). I had to replace front chainwheels and rebuild fork so I figure it saw a lot of rides before I got it. I really like my Kona. It goes where I point it and riding up a flight of stairs is something I thought I'd never do. It's decently light and takes all the beating I can give it on the medium to advanced riding that I do around Vancouver.
Rating: 5
Recommendation: Yes I would recommend it to a friend

Pros: Great geometry, solid feel, no pedaling feedback. Light for full suspension.
Cons: None so far.
Time Used: Less Than A Month
Comments: I've had this bike about 3 weeks and I've put about 100 miles on it. It doesn't climb as well as my hardtail (though much better than my Santa Cruz Heckler) but it is awesome on downhills. I've ridden over obstacles -- particularly rooty drops -- that I'd never attempted before. It's a very fun bike and gets me amped to go ride more.
Rating: 5
Recommendation: Yes I would recommend it to a friend
