Selling my beloved 2015 Kona Honzo aggressive cromoly hardtail large frame. A bad crash has ruined the cartilage in one of my knees and my orthopedic surgeon does not want me shredding steel hardtail any longer. This bike is able to descend anything you are brave enough to put it down and climbs like a mountain goat back up to do it again. I have beaten people with $5k+ bikes in enduro and super downhill races on this frame and gone toe to toe with full rig downhill bikes at big bear and mammoth mountain on the more flow focused trails. All the while still being able to race cross country on the same bike with the swap of some tires. Its meant to ridden with a 120mm fork but it handles a 140mm fork very well if your into more aggressive riding. It was ridden hard for about a year and the frame has been sitting in storage well protected for the past 2 years after I stripped the components to be put onto a process 111 and then my knee fell apart. The frame includes a Cane Creek sealed cartridge headset, some headset spacers, dropouts with a 12mm SRAM Maxle, and a Shimano XTR Hollow Tech II bottom bracket There is a decent amount of cosmetic damage from cable, tire, and chain rub. All in all the frames paint job is still in very good shape Super short chain stays (420mm), a very low bottom bracket, and long reach is what makes the Honzo such a playful bike even though its a 29er. Whether you build it up as a budget bike or spec it out with top notch components it will be a blast to ride. Here are a couple of videos of my glory days on the bike to give you a sense of what it is capable of... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkPoalfxfkE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGjgTb8-Nlw&t=202s Both are with a 140mm fork up front
