Hi,

What are the differences between the Four and the Kikapu frames?

Is the geometry the same?What about the link?weight?

What is the optimal fork length?

thx

I believe the Four replaced the Kikapu....

Try http://www.konaworld.com/page.cfm?content=tech and you should be able to check geometry from X versus Y from different years.

the four has a higher shock ratio, it will be better for lighter riders. the kikapu had a super low 2:1 ratio.

thats a huge difference in itself.

What will be the differences in handling?

Seems like a higher leverage ratio would help out heavier people, yeah? More progression so they don't get hung up in the middle of the shocks's travel? I don't know, I'm just asking.
