During the last couple of years, the fascination and enthusiasm for the New School of off-road riding has exploded _ It started out of our home trails on the North Shore Mountains of BC _ Many companies have tried to associate themselves with this hotbed of Out of Bounds riding, some have even ventured to register the name as a trademark in hopes that it would make them appear to be in touch with the new breed _ Fact is, Kona people have been riding the North Shore trails for the past 20 years and using it as the bottom line test for reliability since we started making bikes in 1988 _ These days weÕre being praised for carefully building strong and durable machines with a balanced ride when before, the same bikes were just considered heavy by the skeptics _ Thing is, the new breed of riders have raised the bar for bike performance and weÕve always believed in being right there with them _ Now you might wonder what this Kona Clump thing is all about and think weÕve just moved off in a weird tangent _ What weÕve always liked to keep in mind is that while you need to understand the science and technology behind the design and materials, itÕs even more important to keep in touch with the organic nature of just plain riding _ There has never been an inventor who can come up with a concept and turn it into the greatest bike since the wheel was invented _ The Kona way is to use the whole Clump of people that work here to really understand what works and why it works _ To put the pieces together we have the Kona Design Team and this is who they are _

His dad calls calls him Jack _ ClayÕs ClayÕ Clay Õs a homeboy, grew up in BÕ B BÕham, Õham, Washington riding BMX dirt & track all day long _ well he grew up smart got a degree in science & technology at the U and learned a lot of really cool stuff _ like stress corrosion occurs by galvanic action _ which led to a dream job straight outa college designing lotsa cool BMX frames ÔÔn n parts _ ClayÕ Clay ClayÕs Õs stuff is all over the Kona BMX bikes and sneakinÕ sneakinÕ into the rest of the bikes too _ didja notice his cromoly bulge crank on the Stab Primo _ his favorite trail is Double Black Diamond on Chuckanut Mountain _

The Bear The Bear _ Lot of people call Paddy The Bear because he can get real grumpy sometimes _ Paddy hails from Wyoming and heads up the Kona Design Clump because no one else wants to do it and heÕs heÕs real good at it heÕ _ Paddy is a damn fine bike handler whoÕ who whoÕs Õs raced a lot of downhill _ When he rode the track people knew to stay out of his way in the miss and out _ hell of a motocross rider too _ never seen anyone who can eat as much salted licorice as The Bear _ his favorite trail is Devil Cross on Galbraith Mountain _

The Dirty The Dirty Dr _ Well you can call him Dewey or Dr. Dew _ he's the guy who figures out all the technical drawings from the sketches and thoughts that Paddy, Jake & DJ dump on him _ Dew was real good at math in school, when it came time to start drafting on a computer about 10 years ago, he taught himself how to run a CAD drafting program on his own _ there probably isnÕt isnÕt anything that Dewey isnÕ canÕÕt ride... water skis, tele skis, can canÕt skateboard, the other day he came in carrying an old woody ski with a couple of skate trucks mounted and started ridinâ ridinâ it around the neighborhood _ whooee that was a sight when Dewey cruised down Main on the longboard wearing that funky brown coat he found in a dumpster over top of his shorts, gumboots and a 3 color beanie _ his favorite trail is Smoke's on Seymour _

A clump is an agglutinated mass of red blood cells Sloping Top Top Tube Tube Tub e The essential element of Kona frame design _ Tighter rear triangle = better acceleration _ Superior main frame modulation _ Stonger head tube area _ More standover clearance and maneuverability _ It's why the Kona ride is recognized as the most balanced & efficient ride in the business _ 13 years later, the design we pioneered is now the standard for almost every mountain bike made _

4 – Bar Bar Linkage Linkage Rear Rear Suspension Suspension 4 links for high torsional rigidity and longer bearing/bushing life _ Shock function is affected by weight, force and gravity - not by pedalling forces _ With homework and testing it was evident the 4-Bar concept was the way to deliver a truly balanced & efficient ride _ By continuously refining testing and adapting 4-Bar, we're able to use this proven design as the basis for Kona Cross-Country, Downhill, Dual Slalom and Out of Bounds machines _

RReinforced einfor einf orced ced Head Tube Tubee Tub Kona sloping top tube allows a longer head tube _ Distributes fork load over a greater area _ Fork, headset and frame maintain strength and integrity _ Long travel suspension forks ramp up that load so Kona headtubes have an expensive CNC machined reinforced area both top and bottom _

Cold-Forged Cold-F Col d-For orged ged Yokes, Yokes, Dropouts Yoke Dropoutss Dropout & Rocker Rocker Rock er Arms Arms Arms They add strength and durability to combat the powerful forces exerted on the rear suspension system _Torsional ridigity is considerably superior as a result and critical to the efficient use of rear suspension _

Disc Brake Brakee Mount Brak Mount Discs run vastly higher forces on a frame compared to a rim brake _ Kona disc tabs are integrated in the forged dropout not added on as a useless sales feature _ Any Kona with a disc tab has a reinforced chainstay standard stays cannot handle the increased force of a disc brake _

K-Nine is Kona’s K-Nine Kona’’s group Kona group of technical technical clothing, clot hing, prot pr protective otec ecti tivve wear, wear, packs packs & bags bags _ We believe We believve th belie tthat hat bike bike clothing clothing & gear shouldd be shoul be consider con considered sidered ed as as functional functional equipmen eq equipment, uipmentt, not fashion fashion accessor acce accessories. ssorie ies. s.

Metal Specifications Metal Specifications Specification s Our frames may be copied but that's not the whole story _ The Kona ride is set apart apart by the design and the careful choice of frame materials and specifications to match the intended use of the bike _ It's not enough to buy steel, aluminum or titanium from a catalog _ The The process in creating a great ride relies on intelligent selection of materials, alloy, the location location and type of taper and butting _ Followed by intensive machine and road testing by the Kona Clump Clump before we start making anything _ See the 2001 2001 Kona Technical Information booklet if you want to know everything _ www.konaworld.com/2001techarea.html. www.konaworld.com/2001techarea.html

Out of Bounds is a term that really defines the New School of Mountain Biking _ After all Free Riding only describes riding that isnÕt competition _ The New Breed rides with so much intensity that it pushes the limits of off-road beyond recognition every day _ Out of Bounds trails start with the most demanding terrain and go beyond there with a circus of ramps, ladders, teeter-totters and drop-offs that would be unrecognizable to the pioneers of mountain biking _ The Kona Stinky series started off as an adapted 4-bar dual suspension Downhill machine that could provide a solid platform for extreme riderÕs styles but allow them to ride all day without the need to shuttle _ These bikes are heavy, all right Ð 35 pounds and more Ð because they have to be _ Five inches of front and rear travel with the strongest and most reliable parts to handle the toughest conditions _ Stinky _ The Smell is Sublime _

What’s With the Warranty" ThereÕs something weÕve got to tell you up front _ Kona Out of Bounds, Dual Suspension and Downhill bikes are not an invitation to a wreckerÕs ball _ TheyÕre a tool for high performance enjoyment _ We probably build our OB, DS and DH bikes stronger than anyone has ever built a bike _ Yet anything can be broken, if you do the right Ð wrong move _ Ride Out of Bounds, you take responsibility for yourself and your equipment _ Just RidinÕ Along is not a valid ticket to warranty _

out of bounds hardtail happy landings _ There are basically two types of landings _ Steep landings require the shock absorption of rear suspension _ But flatter and slower and more precise jumps & drops call for the greater pedalling and balance efficiency of a hardtail _ But not any hardtail _ This group of bikes celebrates the idea that Out of Bounds is everywhere _ Any object on any trail or sidewalk, stairs or ramp is a challenge that can be met with the right preparation & attitude _ A skilled rider can land those obstacles, but whatÕs left behind when you walk away is our challenge _ This pioneering group of New School machines has those landings nailed _ Now, you wanted to know about the Four inch fork travel, right _ Precision is the key factor for OB Hardtail _ Four just right, Five too long _ And the Double Chainring with a Ring Guard _ Agility, Accuracy, Quickness are the keys _ Speed is not an issue _ Survival Ranks High on our List _

has long been in the Kona bloodstream _ The original Kona Mountain Bikes were designed as performance race machines _ PaddyÕs dream for a couple of years was to make the Numero Uno DH race machine period _ After Mountain Bike Action called Stab Primo the Best Production DH bike of 1999 and confirmed that rating again in 2000, The Bear was pretty happy _ But not satisfied _ A design may be great but can always be refined and improved _ And so it was _ But that is easier to do when you have a World Cup budget like the Primo _ The great challenge for 2001 was to make an affordable REAL Privateer DH bike _ something that could be comfortable for everyday Out of Bounds AND performance oriented for DH competition _ The new 6" Stab is the result _ Although some people might call it the Stinky Six _ The sleeper in this threesome is the DuDu _ Yes, it stands for Dual Slalom, Dual Suspension _ This is really Scott BeaumontÕs bike Ôcuz he had the foresight to see that Dual slalom was getting bigger and called for Dual suspension _ The Kona Clump tube set was designed specifically for this bike _ Four and Four inches of travel front and rear seems to be the ideal ticket for this World Cup rig _

Racing since he was a kid, Boom Boom got his start in BMX at 7 ... later took the BMX World Championship in 1995 & 1996 _ And that was just the beginning of his career _ Since his conversion to 26" wheels, Scott has risen steadily through the World Cup Dual Slalom ranks _ As we were writing this, he was 3rd overall in the World Cup _ His DuDu dual slalom machine was ScottÕs the result of ScottÕ Scott Õs collaboration with the Kona Design Team _

cross country hardtails Pure Racing Heritage _ The first Kona Mountain Bikes were bikes designed by Mountain Bike Hall of Fame racer Joe Murray specifically for the use of the Kona Factory Cross-Country race team _ Over the years, dozens of the WorldÕs top racers have tested and proven our pioneering sloping top tube hardtail design, helping us refine it down to the bare essentials of a pure cross-country performance machine _ This yearÕs crop of cross-country hardtails is focused on trimming every gram off, but ONLY if it means that the bottom line of reliability is not hurt _ Details down to superlight inner tubes, alloy spoke nipples, Shimano Hollowtech cranks and bottom brackets, Titanium seat rails and Ultralight saddle foam are all part of the package that makes our hardtail racers an ideal selection for pure performance _

cross country hardtails The (very short) History of Kona _ A bike is a bike is a bike? More than the metal & rubber Ð itÕs the ride _ Over the years of building bikes and riding our local North Shore trails, weÕve refined the classic Kona hardtail frame _ The long sloping top tube shape is classed as one of the best balanced and efficient single track designs anywhere _ The success of the ride can be attributed to the fact that it was tested and proven on the gnarly technical trails of our now famous back yard, VancouverÕs North Shore Mountains _ Cross country riders around the world swear by the balance and confidenceinspiring ride. As a bike company we have always believed in the beauty of a great ride _ Feel the Flow _

Fit & Function _

A lot of bicycle companies spend all their time developing prototype show machines that get front covers but never get made or even ridden _ as riders and not inventors, lifetime bike biz folks and not ego-heads, weÕve always felt the bikes we make for RippinÕ Around are probably the most important bikes to build perfectly _ You will not find our bikes competing in the lowest price categories in your local shop, because there are some corners that just shouldnÕt be cut _ Rather than adopting a mass market mentality and building bikes for the lowest common denominator, we take great pride in adapting all the important Kona features to every single mountain bike we make _ One more thing that you will appreciate when it comes time to get fitted on the perfect size bike for you _ Kona size range is among the widest in the bike biz _ Just about every bike is made in 14" frame size, which allows riders as young as 8 to fit on a fullsize wheel bike _ We also make tighter increments in sizing, with up to 7 sizes in every model _
