wat a crapy bike or ur very fat
almost all kona frames brakes in the same part....really they are not good frames just have good looking!
What the hell is a kona Livewire? or did u get it custom painted? I thought i read somewhere that a pait job voids the warrenty
the year before they rented konas its the same how whistler had the garbonzo konas. Northstar changed bike sponsors for this season and sold all their kona livewires aka stinky

if kona sucks, why do so many pros ride them?? kona aint shitty... u just maybe did something wrong... or got the bad bike of the bunch... check ur geometry...
guys kona doesnt suck. alot of frames break in alot of brands. oh and davidmtb i know this is only one guy who rides kona but i think he counts as a few hmmm John Cowan
ya but he's on their dirt jump team which is good. All their bikes that arent dj and maybe slopetyle. This is their downhill bike and it is the worst of all their f*cking suck ass bikes, and kona sucks don't try to make them look good so shut the f*ck up oskie and go ride your crapy kona
ur a f*g u little tuna bitch. konas are good bikes and its because of f*gs like you that they get a bad rep. u rode a superlight bitch
you guys are both stupid cause fighting on pinkbike is like competing in the special olympics. . . . . . even if you win you are still retarded
i dont think kona bikes are that bad, just the kids who ride them

hey, who is this, cause i know the kid that ownes that bike, did you just get this pic from him or is this you
get new forks, you probably bottomed so hard the frame couldnt take it. cause i have those forks and ther sh!tty as hell. mebe you had a dent or a crack already in the frame
jordan136527, you americans appear to call it a fork, but here in England we call them forks, as does Canada, it seems. Accept the cultural differences and get over it!
I've seen the fork/forks argument so many times. you have just put a new spin on it. apparently ignorance is a cultural difference.
hey oskie, just cause a pro rides them doesnt mean they kick ass, it means they just get there bike for free and extra shit. Besides kona does only have a 5 year warrenty on there frames and i have seen more than one broken, but people need to realize th
the are faulty bike frames out there and oviuosly this guy got one. i have seen specialized bike broken for the guy who thinks they r the best.

bro...sorry about that...hope you have some good warranty stuff to get back on a new one soon.
peace out.
peace out.

Lets get somthing strait here , kona doesnt suck , its simply a couple bad frame posably defective , and a whole ton of stupid people doing dumb shit, now as far as i knew this belongs to somone , and i looked through your album , so ive got some advice f
ooo if only i didnt run out of space ......... anyways , dont dis kona , there good , maybe its the rider that sucks, either that or it was used hard, so shut up
dude thats not drop in freak's bike, that my friend jenner banks' bike.he got it from northstar and rode it hella hard.he broke his frame cuz he dropped a 10 foot container to flat
ok ur an idot then if u did a 10 foot drop to flat....if thats how it broke then maybe u deserved it
[Reply]
doing a 10foot drop is the stupidest thing ive ever heard, and konas arent all that bad it was probably faulty
I've done 7 to flats on single crown hard tails so a ten is definatly possible on this bike for people who think that is grow some nuts and get more speed suck for you bike man
"doing a 10foot drop is the stupidest thing ive ever heard" THAT is the stupidest thing i've ever heard.
GO BIG!
GO BIG!
dude i meant a 10 foot drop to flat, of coarse a 10 foot drop isn't stupid, ive done a 15 and im gunna do a 20 this weekend
You guys all suck! This is my bike right here and as far as I know I would tear everyone of you guys up in biking. I don't know how this pic got here, or how this guy even got it, but I personally think Kona's are a pretty good bike, but I do like specia
it looks like the garbanzo bikes they use in the parks, myabe it was from there originally and got worn out, kona's still sweet tho
so whut maby u just dont no how to take care of your bikes. and if u hate thim so why did u have 1.
p.s. konas rule
p.s. konas rule
YOur f*cking stupid dude you have double crowns on a f*cking hardtail. Konas don't have the geometry to f*cking have those. I dunt like konas cuz they are cheap and every newb has em but they are solid bikes. your just stupid
[Reply]
Whats with the idiots who think this is a hardtail look before you open your mouth and make a fool of yourself.
Dude, I've seen broken frames from every major and minor company out there. If you do something that is beyond the strength of the frame, it will break. Everything has a breaking point. If you bottom out your fork on a drop, there's a chance you're going to shear off the headtube. Wouldn't have mattered if it was a Cove or a Norco or whatever.
i've got one thing to say, ANY bike breaks, ANY bike cracks, NO bike is INDISTRUCTABLE... so whatever, I ride a kona, it's one year old, and hasnt broken or cracked.
[Reply]
this always happens to kona bikes i seen like 243 differnt pics with the headtube snaped off i thought kona woulda relized that they should renforce
idk dude my p2 is better than your stuff strength wise but im a specialized fan but i hate to say it id take a kona freeride bike over a specialized freeride bike big hit for example i dont really want one of them and id take a kona stuff over a rock hopper or hardrock but P.series and demos kill konas
[Reply]
forget the bike, i hope you werent droping anything big when that happened,, teeth cost more than bike frames... well ususally 
[Reply]
[Reply]
yeah, specialized bighits are awesome, norcos dont snap like twigs, youd believe that if u have seen the 07 ryde frame, its more like a DH/FR hardtail
[Reply]
[Reply]
Oh Yea did anyone take into consideration that this is a Park Bike, you gotta think about how many times this bike was beat to hell. lol just a thought
screw you, havn't you ever heard of a frame snapping before???
yeah and skatermusdie is probably right it's prob been bashed and cased to hell
Konas are good!

dude it's a stinky, you can see the rear shock in the picture.
either way, what can you expect from a low quality company like kona?

it makes me sad to see the comments like "that's a Kona" and "typical Kona" etc..
even though I have a Kona I don't think they are the best, but at the same time I don't think they are sh*t either.
Who cares whether you think its a crappy bike or not, obviously other people will have their own opinion but you just don't need to say sh*t like that

i didnt say ALL Kona's are shit. Just thaat one, i'd say the same about any kind of bike with a snapped top Tube.
why do kona refuse to gusset the headtube, looking at their customer feedback it can't be ignorance, they must just not care?!
the kona is garbage touched me to see many pictures of downhill konas breaking the frames, is more popular than quality
