Kona CoilAir

 Kona calls this their enduro/freeride bike, but if you want a freeride bike from Kona go with the stinky deluxe. The coilair is actually an all mountain bike but it still rips up the downhills and devours the uphills. I demoed one today and I must say that the tires are a little small in width, but thats usual for an all mountain bike. I would definitely recommend this bike to anyone who needs to go up and down the hill equally.

 I don't need flashy just something solid, dependable and predictable. This is a solid Bike. Climbs pretty good (a little heavy but you gotta pay more for lighter stuff!), descends great, handles slow tech really well, jumps not to badly either. Magic link is seamless cannot feel it doing it's thing at all. I'd easily recommend it for the price.

 I have the 08 model and it's excellent. It's feels like a downhill bike while going down or jumping and u can still manage to go uphill easily. It's a very good do it all bike.
The only downside is the frame flex. But its no big deal u almost don't notice it.

P.S. I've changed the stem to a shorter one and the suspension to a coil Pike 454.

 My first bike, bought end of season 2009. Lives up to the name of a do-all bike. Minor problems that should be expected, brakes were a bit light, wore some parts out. The Marzocchi fork has had a couple issues. I'm a big guy, around 225lb and I've taken the bike in the park, XC'd all the local terrain and humped it around Moab. It climbs great for a heavy bike, decends well. All in all it has been a great bike.

 does what it is supposed to do, the magic link works perfectly up and down...around quebec where we are it is pretty much all steep up and down and this thing cleans everything with ease

 This is the bike I own it has got many custom parts built on and also has a green frame instead of red! I think if you buy this bike 2008 model then you should really replace the fork if your planning on going downhill.

 i have had two hardtails and this is my first full suspension bike and it has already been well worth while. im already doing wayer big hits than i ever imagined. its a great bike.

 Bought a new 2009 leftover for $1K & just started riding it this spring(2011). Climbs, descends & jumps excellent. Not too heavy & just enough travel for hitting it in the woods.

 Got ths for a great deal on Chain Reaction Cycles, stands up to all kinds of abuse on downhill, the magic link starts to squeak but this can be fixed with a bit of lube. Perfect deal though for only $1500

 immence bike but get the 2008 version
its basicly the same but with a better paint job and cheaper
dead good 4 freeride and cross country

 I have the 2007 model and i like this one because there are not the new suspension system.
Only for the look

So, it's a very good bike.

 i love my coilair! ive only had it for a couple weeks and its 100 times better than hardtails. the magic link system is very smart and responsive.

 pros; great pedaling efficiency, plushness, stability in the air, frame stiffness, steering response, value for money cons; heavy

 Incredible bike
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS BIKE IS THE ALL IN ONE CLIMB LIKE A MONKEY AND GOES DOWN LIKE AN EAGLE
