Kona JAKE Cyclocross Bike
Choosing not to rest on the laurels of our North American cyclocross dominance, or Helen Wymann's recent UK national title, for 2011 we've completely re-armed our cyclocross bikes with new tapered heat tubes, stiffer bottom bracket shells and the addition of our lightning fast full carbon Major Jake-the best priced carbon fiber cyclocross frameset on the market. As we prepare to take over the world, know that all of our time racing in the mud and muck on cyclocross courses from Kansas to the Czech Republic makes its way to our Jake the Snake and Jake models thanks to our proven Kona Race Light alloy frame and lightning quick components.
Kona cyclocross bikes have been dominating the North American scene for a decade. This year we offer new geometry and new sizing on all our Jake's. Offset seatposts with and six different size options ensures the perfect fit, no matter what your height or proportions. The 2011 Jake features smooth welds, oversized headtube and an alloy fork, making it significantly lighter, and seriously more svelt. Throw on Maxxis Mud Wrestler tires, Shimano 9-speed drivetrain, and you're free to rail everything from city streets to mellow off road trails.
