XL 2014 Kona Honzo -- forest green with orange and blue component highlights I love this bike! It has been so good to me. Climbs super well (especially with new larger ranged cassette I had installed) and is super capable on the downs. Perfect for BC riding. Can ride anything on this bad susan I am a light rider weight-wise and don't ride much in the way of jumps and drops (these seem relevant to wear and tear), and I take good care of my equipment maintenance-wise and so on -- regularly servicing suspension, brakes, wheels, dropper post, etc. Moreover I have made a number of upgrades to make this a more capable all-mountain machine... Upgrades: - RockShox Reverb dropper seatpost - Maxxis DHF EXO MAXTERRA Tires - 2.5 WT front (nearly brand new), 2.3 rear (still has some good life on it), running tubeless (+CushCore)... - OneUp aluminum pedals - Chromag trailmaster saddle - Giant Contact SL bars (wider than stock) - OneUp grips - tubeless tire conversion (currently running CushCore in both which I had planned to remove before sale but we could discuss leaving in for an additional fee if you would like) - increased cassette size to a 10 ring Shimano with a much larger range to give those nice big low gears for climbing (earlier this year) - installed new air springs in the fork to increase travel from 120 to 140 mm (this was recently and I had a full fork service done at the same time) - new Shimano crankset/bb (earlier this year) - installed larger brake rotor on front wheel and put existing front rotor onto rear wheel (i.e. going from 180 mm front 160 mm rear to 200 mm front 180 mm rear) to increase stopping power - oneUp titanium pedals (only in a couple of photos) - CushCore tire inserts both wheels (absolute gamechanger...) I think that's everything I've done... - Stock specs: https://2014.konaworld.com/honzo.cfm Please ask me any questions you might have, I love talking about this bike. It has treated me so well. I just basically got given a new bike If you want to organize shipping we can discuss that!

Great all-around bike, unfortunately it's a bit small for me (I'm 6'6 and the bike's XL sticker says: 'rider height 6'1"-6'4"'). Original specs except.... I've replaced the grips to some Srams, changed the pedals to some Giant metal freeride pedals (also will include the clip in cross-country pedals it originally came with!), and put maxxis downhill tires on it (minion dhf front and minion dhr II rear) and downhill tubes which are essentially brand new! Please don't hesitate to inquire with any questions :)
