When our friends from GCN ask us two bikes for the impossible, we give them our Kona Libre and his sibling, the Kona Libre EL. We know our bikes can handle it. But can they? 

If it looks steep on camera you knowww it’s terrifying in real life! Instead of going down, they are pushing the legs and limits going UP on our Kona’s. They found themselves a 100 percent gradient climb, that is 45 degrees. Yes. You read that well. Forty-five degrees. Scroll down and see for it yourself!
