Strengths:    full suspesion, nice parts spec, simple isis BB

Weaknesses:    A few parts could be nicer, but its still a great value

Bottom Line:   
This bike is one of the funest bike I have ever ridin, and I work in a shop so that is saying something. Kona does an awesome job building thier frames, and the total package rocks. They put the money where it matters(Stylo SS cranks), in stead of only where it looks flashy. The bar is nice and wide, which is nice for a SS, and the coil shock on the rear is maintanence free. This is a bike that is allways ready to go. Squirt some lube on the chain and cables and thats it. I highly recommend this bike to any one looking for a SS, much less a FS SS. Also the support guys at Kona are awesome. They are still small enough to call up and talk to the guy that welded your frame, but big enough to take care of any problems you might have.

ON THE SIDE: The idiot who posted the review below should pull his head out of his rectum, and stop riding bikes. This is not a "go big" bike. It is an XC bike designed woth value, simplicity, and fun in mind. Any one who has the slightest notion about Hucking this bike has a serious lack of judgement and common sense.
