Good result,  Kona good bikes . rode a cinder kone myself in the 90's still got it in the back of the shed ,they've really moved on since then though mine has project 2 solid forks not really what you need for the forest trails . Enjoy new ride and no reason not to see you on Forum ride soon . |

Halfords have improved a lot, rang up the other day to speak to bike section but they were busy so the guy took my number and they called back, then had a look to see if they could get a tire a wanted. Apparently they can get most things for you.

I got Dart 2 shocks and they've done me well so far. They're entry level but I don't have to fanny about with them and they're quite forgiving over the rough stuff.
