I saw the picture in the 08 catalogue, of the frame itself, and I was suprprize that didn't talked about it very much.

The frame is nice, looks like all the other cro-mo frame, just a different paintjob. They just wanted to market with this street/dj frame.

Agreed. How could Kona be so deaf to what people want in a bike? If they are going to continue making bikes the way they do (or did) they're gunna go broke soon. Funny how such a big bike comopany isn't able to catch onto what's going on out in the riding scene. Do your homework Kona!
