I'm no engineer but where is the floating disc? Is this bike going to have brake jack? Also why is the upper link not using a one piece rocker. It's not an industry standard for stiffness? Definately a lighter and more asthetically pleasing Kona.

Aaron, you're brilliant. Your living your life with the cards you were dealt. Your attitude is awesome and infectious. I would love to see a young person like you go around to high schools and tell your storey. You inspire me to aspire to be the best that I can be.

There's alot of great bikes in the market place. Each manufacturer is trying to get to the same destination. They just taking different routes to get there. Test ride the bike and see if it suits you. If it does, buy it. I like Nike (fashion / brand positioning) but I wear New Balance (Fit). Bottom line.. you should buy what feels best to you and your style of riding whether it's a Trek or a Specialized or a Rocky. Keep it in perspective. Look at the shit designs we used to ride 10 - 15 years ago. Lifes good. Ride your bike.
