Expirience with the Kona Process 134 CR/DL G3

Ludwig Döhl It had gotten quiet around Kona. Although the company was recently navigating financially rough waters, they haven't stopped developing new models. The Process 134 CR/DL is meant to bring back the spirit for which the cult brand Kona is loved. The flat 65,5 degree head tube angle of the Kona gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. The seating position does not manage to be too athletic, nor too upright. It´s moderate character is likely to suite the vast majority of bikers. With the Kona Process 134 CR/DL, the real fun starts at the peak of the mountain. Because in the downhill, the in alpine terrain is better than the competitors in this price range. Kona gives 25 years warranty on the bike.
