Kona are doing a much better job in recent months of producing bikes you might actually consider buying...

not sure. certainly better than Kona's normal efforts.
a paint job can really change the look of a bike, and I'm not a big fan of Kona graphics.
all looks nice apart from the seat stays.

That's quite handsome. Spindly shockmount looks a bit wrong though, out of proportion with the rest of it.

Its a little odd that the Process was a new model (I believe) for 2013 with Kona's traditional faux bar design. And it is being replaced already with a completely new design.

Were they not selling well? Or did Kona decide that 26" wheels are a thing of the past? Its not a Horst link, as the pivot is still on the seatstay, so that's not the reason...
