you sir are wrong

 Does NS, Transition, Specialized, Trek get all around the world and have multiple selections of bikes for different riding styles. Not as many of any of the brands I just listed probably go around the world as much as the variety of Kona's do. If you don't like them don't hate just mind your business and go ride your $3000+ bike that a affordable lower end brand bike can serve the same propose for.

 im not hatin on them. i love kona. they build rad bike and seeing TWO pictures of broken operators isnt convincing enough to hate them or not ride them. Giant bike are "factory made" and you dont see those snappin in half. dude.. just think before you speak.

 giants dont snap ? new glory .. stp's ,.. and on and on..

 Pictures or it didn't happen.

just type in kona

 the first is a stinky TL. trust me ive done the research and the second.... thats is 3 photos of new broken konas. that not enough to say "all mass produced" frames are going to break.

 i didnt say that... but it does stand out.. that smaller companies.. build there bikes better.. but nowdays there are only a handfull of factory's mostly in taiwan and china that produce ALL the frames in the world.. for carbon for instance there are only two factory's who do that.,. the only thing that separates frames.. is the work and how good the labour was on it..
