its all about your person preferences if u like something then u cant really go out and ask people if u do actually like it. its all about person liking

i have had a few norcos in the past and they have all been great to me

i think you should pay less attention to the brand and more attention to the bike. that way you will get the bike that suits you most. dont choose a norco over a kona just because people say they are better and vice versa

Don't take either.
Get a Transition or something like that.
Norco has some sweet hardtails im not denying that.
and Kona has some sweet rides.
if your going to spend a lot of cash on a bike like this.
look around.
Konas have a wear and tear problems.
personally i love mine though

My Norco Manik has been great. Just bought a new frame though(Shore 3). I definitely recommend Norco over Kona...Lots more to choose from and they all have really nice components.
