Very light bike, wicked green paint, extremely nimble. It simply becomes part of the rider.
Cons:
hm... I would say the stock breaks and deore crankset.
Time Used:
More than 2 years
Comments:
I have ridden this bike in almost every kind of elements, from heat to 8 inches of snow, and it has done very well. I don't do any free riding; I prefer fast single track and moderately aggresive downhill riding. This bike is an excellent climber stock, but I've upgraded to full XT and Hayes HFX9 discs. heh disc brakes are wonderful and would definetly recommend them as an upgrade for this bike.

i have had this bike for 6 months, i ride it all the time and i love it!! its light so it makes climbing up even the steepest hills seem like flatlanding, and it flies down the downhills. this bike is excellent for technical terrain and fast singletrack that turns alot. i give kona five stars for this bike
