Process 153, GREAT bikes eh! Superb choice for 27.5 riding. As good or better than a Bronson. I think I'd pick the Kona over the SC if I were riding tougher terrain, enduro, hills, etc. Don't know which one's expected to climb better, but MAY like the Bronson equally for typical trail. Either way the process was ALMOST going to be my choice but I went w/Stumpy for the 29's and the travel. I like your downtube design better than the new ones I have to say. LOVED the 2018 version!
