Kona Cinder Cone
This bike offers a top quality cross country bike at an affordable price. High quality Deore components feature high in the spec, while the frame is made from lightweight yet tough Aluminium.
FRAME
The frame on the Cinder Cone is made from 7005 Aluminium which is lightweight without comprimising strength. This is enhanced by custom butting. Specifically for cross country, the frame is strategically strengthened by increasing the thickness of material used at that point in the tube. However, this extra material is not used elsewhere on the frame, meaning that weight isn't increased. The frame has integrated disc mounts which allow for the potential for a later upgrade. A gusset is added to strengthen the downtube. The rear triangle has a compact design which allows for efficient acceleration. More standover clearance is gained by Kona's tried and tested sloping frame design. The top tube is longer than average which allows for freer body movement and better enables you to find the correct positioning. A more vertically compliant frame is gained through a closer to parallel top and down tube. The longer head tube serves many functions: it means better shock distribution and longer headset bearing
DRIVETRAIN
Shimano Deore is used for the front derailleur and shifters. These shifters have a short-stroke action for light and responsive shifting. An LX rear mech uses two fluorine coated pivot pins to reduce friction and make the shifting action more precise. Alloy is used in the rear mech for a lighter weight. The drive train on the Cinder Cone is 27 speed for a wider gear selection.
SUSPENSION
The Rockshox Judy on the Cinder Cone provides 80mm of travel. This fork is made from a one-piece magnesium casting which provides the ideal balance between light weight and strength. XXX seals have a patented pop-up wiper seal to keep out dirt, a foam filter to prevent debris getting into the fork and an oil seal to improve plushness. The net effect is less time maintaining your forks and more time using them!! Hydracoil means that each leg houses an open-bath damper and spring coil. The spring is constantly bathed by oil to give sensitivity over smaller bumps without losing the ability to cope with the harsher hits on the trail.
BRAKING
Avid Single Digit brakes provide a high quality of braking performance. The Avid AD3 levers provide dependability while retaining a light weight.
WHEELS & TYRES
Shimano Deore hubs have double contact sealing which shuts out water, mud and dirt from the bearings. This extends service life and provides a smoother performance. These are built onto Mavic X139 rims. Tioga Factory XC tyres are superb in all terrains. The open tread design sheds mud brilliantly, while also having FAT66 casing which reduces pinch flats.
The Cinder Cone blends a classic and dependable frame design with quality components to provide a reliability of performance almost unmatched at this price
