The Rock Shox RS-1 (modern) is also a notable Single crown Inverted fork. Excited for the Dual Crown run down though! I had a White Bros DH3 on my Super 8, and also spent time on a Stratos S8. Those were awesome.

Love the Glory’s colors, a throwback to the ATX DH!

As you describe this I envision the dual shock Cannondale Gemini.

What! Not even an S-Works sticker on that down tube?

Dang, Bobby Root! His high speed manuals were inspirational. Richie Schley was probably the most influential rider of mine when I was growing into the sport.

Absolutely love the throwback font and head badge on the Kona’s!

My first real mountain bike was a 2000 Kona Caldera, in blue with a bomber z4 and the trickiest feature.....glow in the dark graphics and grips!!! Being 15 years old at the time, my buddies and I would chill and watch all the Kranked videos then go out and try to ride like Simmons, Tippie, and Schley. That bike made me as a rider and how I ride today. It was my urban, trials, trail, slalom, free ride and DH bike. I even won my first DH race on it!! The bike even helped me through some major hardships in my high school years. I have since moved along through various brands, but you can’t ignore those Kona roots. I have to give the Kona guys a sincere Thanks. You have made amazing bikes through the years and My life probably wouldn’t have turned out like it has without you. I’d also like to note that the Stab in the video was a dream bike of mine. Brings back tons of great memories.
