Sutra report from Ireland


“Garry @ MBW shop in Galway fixed me up with this blue Kona Sutra at the Irish bike show, a real cool, take you anywhere bike. All you have to do is point and pedal, a strong bike, hope to do many tours on it and have completed an strava challenge already with the bike doing over 1000km in April!. I love this bike so had to ride it back to Galway to its home town from Enniscorthy. On the return I did 107 miles Galway to Kilkenny so what does that say about the Sutra, if I can do it? Try it its a super bike!” – John Busher
