Product description
Often imitated, but never duplicated, the Kona Honzo is a part of Kona’s foundation. The Honzo is the solution for the rider wanting something a bit more aggressive than a traditional cross-country hardtail. A RockShox Recon RL fork with 130mm travel provides just enough suspension to make quick work of technical sections of trail. Whether you’re a seasoned rider looking for timeless hardtail or a newer rider looking to go a bit deeper into the mountain bike world, the Honzo is an excellent choice.
An aluminium frame is designed around 29" wheels with a smooth 130mm suspension fork and Shimano Deore 11-speed drivetrain for a lightweight, confident shifts. Control and confidence are optimized on descents with a TranzX Dropper +RAD dropper post and Shimano RT30 hydraulic disc brakes.
Why 29” wheels?
- 29" bikes for better control - thanks to a larger contact area with the ground, they offer you improved traction and better control while riding
- 29" bikes for higher speed - simple physics: larger diameter, higher speed
- 29" bikes for a smoother ride - larger wheels make it easier to overcome smaller and larger obstacles on the trail
- 29" bikes for taller bikers – simply because they are larger
