About
This is the ultimate bike! Ten years old and still rides like new. It’s a shame Kona stopped making them and deprived people of riding the world’s best HT. I’m glad I got mine! For a bigger than average bike, it’s really light due to all the Ti components.
I bought the frame and had it custom built by the great guys at Bicycle Works in Waterdown. I highly recommend that if you are looking for great service you check them out.
In 1999 a bunch of us went to Mt. Tremblant and biked there all weekend. It was a blast to take this bike through those trails. But the most fun was taking the access road down from the top. It was fast and scary. I’m glad I went with the fatter tires that weekend.
