Kona has announced the release of an updated new Process 153 and Process 134. These are the third generation of a line of trail mountain bikes that were originally released by Kona a decade ago. While it might not be a complete redesign, its great news to see the cogs of the Kona machine moving once again.
Earlier in the year the future of Kona Bicycles was a bit bleak. A BOGOF sale and then an unexplained exit from Sea Otter raised suspicion that the writing was on the wall for the legendary Canadian mountain bike brand. Kona Bicycles parent brand, Canadian sporting goods company Kent Outdoors, put Kona up for sale back in April and it was bought back by its original founders, Dan Gerhard and Jake Heilbron.
