Kona BLAST Mountain Bike 2010
The way into the forest should be glorious. And it shall. Comfort, confidence and graced with oodles of serious fun, Kona's line of cross-country Trail bikes bestow riders of all abilities everything they need to keep a love affair with mountain biking on the up and up. For those looking to try mountain biking for the first time, or cyclists eager to push further into the big wide world of off-road cycling, Kona's Trail platform offers beautiful bikes with a long, trail-tested history, high quality craftsmanship, and a decidedly performance savvy ride. Ride far good friend.
We wanted to call this bike "good times explosion" but it was too long. Blast will have to do. Not just because it launches you into the beautiful world of all-day trail riding, but you'll have so much fun on this bike we might have to charge you extra. Kidding. This year the Blast gets hydraulic brakes for better stopping power. Oh trust us, we know, it's not easy wrangling in the good times.
