KAHUNA components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the RockShox model. The travel on this model is 100mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Wheels
As for the wheels, Kona KAHUNA 2011, has a 29″ aluminum model. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Kona KAHUNA has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
