Oh so you went for the Envy instead of these 2?

yea it came down to the apex and the envy because i realized the verde wasn't really comparable and ended up going with the envy because at the time the 09 kink bikes were stuck at the boarder trying to come into canada and part for part the envy seemed like the better choice for me!

I just got my 09 Apex today and it is light as hell! The Apex is a great bike, although I havn't personally ridden a verde. I got the apex though because I found it for $513.

The Verde is a cool bike, I don't see what is wrong.

which do you think is the better bike for street and some dirt riding please give some feedback
Apex for sure. anyone that says verde is just biased and probably owns a verde.
why kink? i have a modus and my friend has a kink. he doesnt even seem to like his much and hes had all sorts of problems with the stock headset and stem. i have had litteraly zero problems with my modus. i just have chainstay brakes thats all. How can someone judge a bike properly if they havent owned it or been around it anyway? lol its not biased at all its just a fact

When I got my Apex the tire blew up the first day of riding, and when I got a new one I snapped my crank arm off(probly faulty one), HOWEVER, Kink has the best customer service I have experienced.


Oh, and the stock stem does blow ass.
