04 Kona's FINAL

This could be a little old but here's the 04 Kona lineup
http://www.konaworld.com/2k4_bikes.cfm
I REALLY dislike the new Primo mainly because it's got dual-control levers and the somewhat unproven Saint stuff, Kona should have done a little more research but the Stab Primo on the other hand is a work of art...888 and a Fox Vanilla DH shock

Personally I don't find them that exciting. All they did was change some build items and colors...Same design as before with no refinements (that I can see at least).

But if ya dig Kona's, they are some neato looking bikes.

hmm i don't mind them they got rid of the scab. Their hardtails aren't anything special. The stab primo is a sweet looking bike the colours a bit to flashy for my liking. The stinky d is pretty neat though.

The scab is a pretty decent bike, my dad has one and I have done 8 foot drops on it and it held up fine.

I have a completely new respect for the Dual Control Levers. SOOOOOOO easy. If they were more durable, and more versatile, I would buy them.

If only they were more durable and didn't use that gay rotor setup.

Yup. Nice fork, and nice rear shock.

why change when the suspension design works very well. You can set a stinky's frame for any style of riding depending on the rear shock and it will be a very comfortable ride.
