Favorite Trail:
terry fox dirt jumps & outer thigh
Duration Product Used:
6 months
Price Paid:
$799.00
Purchased At:
full cycle
Strengths:
This is a good all around bike, i can pound on dirt jumps and still ride some trails . I like the component spec and have only 1 complaint (see below).
Weaknesses:
The Marzocchi Dirt jam comps don't have the greatest amount of adjustabilaty but i never use the preload adjusters anyways.
Similar Products Used:
I have demo'd the Norco Big Foot but preferred the Kona because of my small size.
Bike Setup:
completely stock aside from a Lizzard Skin and a cycle computer.
Bottom Line:
This is a good bike for a small person who doesn't shy away from the dirt jumps and street styles of riding, but once in a while goes for all day all mountain type trail rides. But don't fool yourself, this is no cross country rig. But a hardtail dirt jumper / freerider
