Bike show soon so i have some money to spend, so imput is useful. Don't got $1000 to blow so i need to set my priorities
i dont think hes a kona hater. i think hes like me. konas arnt that great of a bike. good for starting, but after a while, you realize that everyone has one cuz its relativly cheap($) and has a decent name. there dj line sucks balls. and dh/fr bikes have crazy pedal bob and not that great of rear wheel path. i would say get a .243 or somethign more original.dotn buy a prebuilt bike. start with the frame and build it up from there. its totally custom and you put on it what fits your style. and definatly change your fork. worst part of the bike.
