Kona Explosif

More product description:
A pleasure to ride, excelent geometry as well. Still a really enjoyable and satisfying bike to ride - all the updates that have been made to it over the years only add to this as the frame and fork are great (if not the lightest). Suddenly, it seems They'm 20% stronger. They upgraded with Lawill Leader 3's, manitou 150mm stem an a decent rise, put some shannon risers on it, magura's HS22's, an some ritchey tatties. It is light enough to race, competatively yet strong enough to support my 215 pounds. The bike surges forward with each pedal stroke and makes molehills out of mountains. If my memory serves me, older kona's had a 72degree head angle, while this one lists at a more conventional 71. Perhaps this is because the shop had to re-dish the wheels and did a good job with the tension when they did.
