Overview
About this bike
Kona truly believes that just because you're not swimming in cash, that shouldn't mean that you can't ride a great bike. The Downside follows in that great Kona tradition of bomber steel hardtail jumpers with a super-low top tube, slack head angle and tight chainstays. All this makes for a bike that's flickable, manuals easily, and feels stable in the air and on the ground. No jumper should be without a good suspension fork and discs, so you're equipped with a Marzocchi DJ and Tektro brakes. And for true street cred, there's BMX-style cranks, Pivotal saddle, and a tight singlespeed drivetrain so you can concentrate on the skills.
