fuk off kona rule cheap and good geo

yeah bollmv that is not a manufacture's defect. look at the seat and because the top tube is bent and not cracked means that this person doesn't know how to ride a bike. they prolly nosed it real hard, or stacked to flat hella bad. kona is a good company, its just that most of the kids that ride 'em don't know how to treat a bike

ya i know, i gotta say, kona's are actually really smooth and nice to ride, i was just going with the flow there...

thats the kona for you. notice how the 888 and s-type rims are intact

thats the new kona 2008 stinky model extra small

i seccond that pake, ive put verry similar comments on pics in the past.

actually Kona is kinda overprice for what you get

the only maybe overpriced kona would be the stinky air. and that's just cause it's $6000. you do get an amazing spec though and an amazing bike for that money though. not overpriced

says the 14 year old who has never ridden one

lol so trueee! haha, they're such a nice ride

pake i have at the moment a kona stuff decent dont like it much but it work and my judge ment is bast on a educated gess because kona has the most broken frames iv seen and i have riden an 08 stinky so wat do u have to say now

i think you should learn to write properly. also, a simple hardtail like a stuff can't compare to a stinky that has linkage and a rear shock. but if you read my longer comment above, i explain how this is not kona's fault and there fore not a manufacturer defect. a lot of people blame kona for broken bikes, when usually it's the people that don't know how to ride/take care of them

Look at this pi. Now im pritty sure a pro know how to ride a take care of a bike

the search results for broken bikes. kona aint the only brand that has their shit broken. i've seen a sx trail with the patented "cobra" headtube design broken. it's just a matter of being unlucky

true but few are from 06 and up

As you can see here, loads and loads of bikes break! Not just Kona's. I'm pretty sure more or less every bike in production has suffered breakages! You may see more broken konas than you do other bikes, maybe its because you're ignoring the others when you see them, or maybe its because a lot of people buy them and so increasing the probability that one will break

but ive seen much snapped kona think that kona must lower ther price tag

Yes you may have seen "much snapped kona" but i already explained why ^
there are probably more kona bikes than there are any other mountain manufacturer bikes! Lots of people buy konas because of their wide product base, they are well marketed and well tested, and if you ask me, are very well priced!

am i seeing double?

oh smart ass, i was actually talking about recent bikes, that stab is like 2001/2002. This sort of thing will happen to any bike if you front end it at a high enough speed, aluminium is not capable of taking that much stress, no matter how well it is made/welded/put together!

typical to kona

any bike could do that

I thought I'd post this just because for those who'd be interested. The History channel did a little segment on "frames" in Modern Marvels, it's cool and informative I think. Has FOES and Specialized.

basically, thats why you dont buy kona.

haha not the responce I expected but ok (I'm not on any side, all I know is that the Kona's used to be super strong 5 or so years ago...)

every one who has never snaped a kona frame can not say that konas suck THAT IS SO TRUE

look at the frame

LOL nice one =D

=(( i also have kona =DDD

ok you cant photo shop that notice the back round and the handle bars its impossible to photo shop that

haha no m8 ur the dumb ass grow some eyes. that aint photoshoped.
