This hardcore-hardtail bike features a quality Chromoly (CrMo) frame that's designed with modern enduro-inspired geometry, a 150mm-travel Marzocchi Bomber suspension fork and a Shimano 1x12-Speed groupset with hydraulic disc brakes. Plus, it rolls upon ultra-reliable Race Face AR30 rims wrapped in immense-grip Maxxis Wide Trail Assegai/Minnion tyres. And, it features a Race Face Aeffect finishing kit that includes a handlebar, stem and chainset. This bike sits at the pinnacle of off-road hardtail mountain bike performance. CrMo Steel Frame, Marzocchi Suspension and Race Face Components If Mad Max rode a bike, it would be the Honzo ESD. It’s part Honzo, part monster, and with geometry that inspired the Process X, it’s made for those who want to punish the trails. A steel frame holds a Marzocchi Bomber Z1 fork with 150mm of travel. It’s got strong 4-piston brakes, grippy Maxxis rubber, and a headtube badge that will scare your children at night. This is the Warrior of the Wasteland. Strong, Lightweight and Durable Kona Chromoly Very few materials offer as much shock absorption, durability and supple-ride characteristics as steel. We’ve never strayed from cycling’s original material and have worked tirelessly to adapt, refine and innovate Kona Chromoly framesets as rider demands continue to evolve. Tapered Head Tube More girth at the bottom of the head tube better distributes shock force, prolonging the bearing life of the headset itself and eliminating brake shudder, while providing confident steering performance. The inherent strength of its triangular design also means a stronger steering position and improved balance, giving the rider more control in rough terrain. A zero-stack, tapered head tube also puts strength where the load is going—into the lower headset cup—maximizing bearing durability where it’s needed. 12x148mm Boost Axle for Greater Trail Stability 12x142mm, 12x148 and 12x157 rear axle standards provide two major advantages to the Kona rider: the 12mm diameter of the rear axle provides the rear hub and frame with a stiff interface, while the 142/148/157mm outer diameter of the hub allows the wheel to be quickly and properly positioned in the frame before the rear axle is inserted. For 2017, you’ll see the 12x148 Boost standard in the mix. Boost spacing provides more tire clearance at the chainstay yoke, while the rear wheel is stiffer and more durable relative to a 12x142 thru-axle. Built, Tuned and Ready to Ride Rest assured that each bike is fully built and tuned by Wiggle's team of qualified bike mechanics to ensure your bike arrives in perfect condition. We supply all bikes with a set of plastic pedals, a pedal wrench and a multi-tool kit. Find out which size fits you by clicking the size chart tab.

The Padloc system uses an inner, wedge-shaped sleeve to lock the grip to the bar, whilst a layer of wedge-shaped rubber provides comfort in the sensitive area of the ulnar nerve.
