And bikes arent the same as diamonds, Its just that bikes like Evil or santa cruz are expensive because they are hand welded and made with high quality metal, Konas are shitty welds and cheap metal, they are mass produced and thats why they are cheap. So no...You just got owned

you do realize that you havent posted these as a reply so hes never going to read them also kona uses 7005 alu as far as i know hich is by no means crap and all frames are hand welded also your choice of evil is a bad choice as it has been known to crack to if you scale up the percentages i would think more evils crack than konas seeing as there are abpout 500 konas per evil. Every bike company will have bikes that break the more popular the bike is the more of them will crack its simple law of averages deal with it

I didnt really get owned, I mean if you go and look at broken bikes a pretty good percentage of them are konas, Ive personally seen 4 snapped frames, 3 of them being konas.

swap the bars for a seat, add pedals, and you have a MINT full suspention uni-cycle

your gonna see more snapped kona's than more expensive bikes as kona's are mass produced and common!

Not really thi is the only one ive ever seen snapped in real life and if you read the description it took a mighty hard case on the nose a few days before.

hahaha amrv just got owned i love how people think just because Kona's are cheap they are shit well actually the reason they go so cheap is that they make so many that they are becoming a common bike decreasing there value (like if diamonds were everywhere they would be a lot cheaper)
