Kona Process 153

Well, with the short rear end and everything, it just doesn't feel quite as stable as some other bikes out there. when you really get up speed and you...

This is a brilliant bike that embodies everything that Kona is all about. It's about getting out there, having fun and enjoying riding your bike. Kona

I recommend the Kona process 134/153

With their oversized linkage and bearings, they might not be the lightest but they are fun af and strong like a tank

Also the geo isn’t super slack so it’s great for people who don’t like super slack bikes

Look at the reviews on the Kona Process 153. It is thr BMX bike of the mtn bike world despite the 29er size. Buddy of mine has one and was blown away at how playful it is.

It probably works extremely well, but from when I've tried high pivot bikes, it isn't massive. I'd rather save the money. Fork and shock look solid, but I'd hope they would for that money. For that price, I'd be looking at a Kona Process 153, Commencal Meta, YT Jeffsy, Propain Tyee, Specialized Status... there are a tonne of options.

Thanks to the slightly lower-than-some front end, it manages to be very capable while also being poised and fun to ride on flatter or more mellow trails. It doesn’t feel dull or lifeless when you’re holding momentum on easier rides. I think this is a really important trait. Not everything we ride is...
