Hate them.

And I don't mean the Shonky in particular, I mean all Konas!
I just don't get why they make the names so shit! (I know it's not the name, but performance)
But Konas have and always will be, my ENEMY! :twisted:

im not a fan of it, i've always loved the kona dj frames because they're so light and feel really nice to ride, this seems like it just wont be right, if i wanted a cromo i'd go a suburban or something

That frame looks good, but the name is a bit weird.

ROFLCOPTER what!?!?!?!
They're exceedingly porky as aluminium DJ bikes go, and the geometry is exceedingly whack as well. I'm not sure how you could ever come to that opinion.

This new one is plainly a Taiwan catalogue frame, looks very much DMR/steel Norco/steel Avanti style, so hopefully they've inherited some good geometry.

haha i don't actually know! the stuff i used to own rode really well, it was very light and it handled well, although that may be just personal preference, i just liked it because it was really short and meh!
