Price Paid: $2000.00
Strengths:Light weight, suspension works great, really confortable and handles great on decents and a good climber. Its a fast bike !!!!!!
Weaknesses:None found yet
Bottom Line:For the price paid this bike is really awesome. It not only provides a confortable ride but the bike handles really good. Comes with a R.S. Reba Race fork that works great on roots and rocks. A great climber as well. I feel very confident on how it grips the trial. I really enjoy riding this bike.

Submitted by Cody a from Canada
Date Reviewed: October 11, 2007
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $2000.00
Purchased At:RVC
Strengths:Super light and looks amazing. Suspension feels like a DH rig on the decents.
Weaknesses:The bike is a little flexy. Can't tune the shock not to bob when pedaling hard. My old Element was super efficient but the Kona isn't nearly as efficient.
Similar Products Used:Trel Fuel 98, Rocky Mountain Element.
Bike Setup:Sid Team with remote, full XT drivetrain and brakes, raceface duce cranks, bar, stem and post. FSA xc300 wheels.
Bottom Line:This bike is super light (frame under 5 lbs). Looks amazing. Bombs decents and carves corners a new one. Really good value for what you get. I wish the bike pedaled a little better but its still smoking fast. Bottom line...almost as fast as it looks!
