Not like before. Only four cheap models and no reducing prices apparently.

Yah, I was talking to the Kona rep the other day. Big differences this time. Their new range is making some of then big names look silly, TBH.

It's a bit of a shame that some of the big name brands really are producing some lacklustre bikes these days , you could also include Gt and Marin along with Kona. 🙁

Except kona are probably producing some of the best bikes they've made in over a decade, Operator, Entourage, Process, honzo?... GT have some good looking models too actually...

My stash - 2 lava domes, a bear dee-lux, a unit and a process 153

They could sell em in Asda and I'd still say theyd still be the better than any other bike out there

Agree with cookeaa - some of Kona's recent bikes have been amazing

Can't comment in the Halfords models but they have a wide range of bikes and Halfords are only selling four models.

Yeah been a big Kona fan for years , 1st proper MTB was a 1997 Caldera . ATM I've got an Aha cruiser , 2 years ago a Ti Raijin 29er joined it and 2 days ago the stable was completed with a Process 134 DL which is flippin brilliant . Hopefully they won't make the same mistake again, early signs are good .

2014/2015 Konas are incredible. I want one so much, even at full RRP out the LBS, they're lovely and I'll take a supreme operator Ta

Bargain. Also, Connor Fearon and Graham Aggasiz make them look like godly-spaceships of wonder.
