Bike Radar Tests the Honzo: “Loads of fun to ride”
/?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : Only display excerpts for archives and search. ?> /?php the_excerpt(); ?> /?php else : ?>
The Honzo bridges gaps, literally and metaphorically. Kona describe it as a “balls-out, aggressive all-mountain 29er chromoly hardtail”. We won’t beg to differ, although you’ll need to be fit to haul its 30.5lb ‘built for knocks’ heft up the steepest climbs with just a single 32-tooth chainring up front; even the 36t sprocket out back isn’t always enough.

Dylan Sherrard: Life In The Loops – Spring Fling
/?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : Only display excerpts for archives and search. ?> /?php the_excerpt(); ?> /?php else : ?>
It seems as though I have developed a bit of a habbit that relapses when things come back together with each new spring. It’s this little thing I’ve got going on with a little black bike of mine. My Kona Lacondeguy is a couple years old and can often be found hiding in my living room with hooded sweaters hanging from the handle bar. I never really pay much attention to it simply because I’ve never felt very enthusiastic about dirt jump hardtails. I like big bikes and all that goes along with them. But there is something in the way this wild ride works magic in the Kamloops Bike Ranch well before the rest of the world is dry, something that draws me back to riding it every spring. Read More

2013 Sneak Peek – The Rove, Kona’s New Drop Bar All-Terrain Time Machine
/?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : Only display excerpts for archives and search. ?> /?php the_excerpt(); ?> /?php else : ?>
The 2013 Rove Prototype build, Kona’s new drop bar Cromoly all-terrain do-it-aller.
The Bike:
When it comes to “Monster Cross” or “Gravel Grinder” bikes, we wanted to design a ride that would excel on as many rough surfaces as we could throw at it. Everything from bumpy backroads to dusty highways, with all forms of irregularity in between. A bike that could go on a month long tour one day, ride to school the next, then race cross on the weekend. The Rove is all about filling that slot…or slots we should say. Featuring large tire clearance, eyelets for racks and fenders, and mechanical disc brakes, the Rove’s Kona Cromoly frameset is all about doing a lot with a little, and having boatloads of everywhere fun along the way.

Team Update – Kona’s Front Line Warriors Continue to Kick Ass
/?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : Only display excerpts for archives and search. ?> /?php the_excerpt(); ?> /?php else : ?>The Kona Team’s star-studded cadre of international pro cyclists continues to turn heads with solid results, incredible exposure and good time antics. Here’s an up to date look at their recent successes.
Downhill: Australian youngsters Mitch Delfs and Connor Fearon started the season of with World Cup #1 in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. Both qualified well on their new 2012 Team issue Operator Supremes on the pedal heavy track. In the finals, Connor had a fast run going, but an untimely crash cost him some places. Mitch raced well on a course not suiting his strengths and finished 45th. Mitch then ventured to Canada to train, finishing off the trip with the Sea Otter Classic and a 12th place finish in the Pro GRT in Washington. Up next for the DH team is World Cup #2 in Val di Sol, Italy.
