Expirience with the Kona Process 134 DL G3

Ludwig Döhl The brand Kona is part of the MTB industry's heritage. With the Process 134 DL, Kona's developers live up to the brand's reputation. The bike is built tough and signals with its external cable routing: This is about riding fun, not technical gimmicks. Especially in extremely steep terrain, this combination makes for smooth handling. When it comes to the seating position, Kona chooses the middle ground between sporty and comfortable. Considering that in the range under 3000 Euro, hardly any other manufacturer makes a better bike for the same specs of wheels. Nice! A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 25 years warranty Kona sets the bar high!
