2016 Kona Process 153 DL Mountain Bike

Featured in the 2016 Dirt 100 ‘without doubt the most inspired bike that Kona have ever produced’

Ride the whole mountain with confidence on the Kona Process 153 DL. This super-capable full sus mountain bike is built to tear up the gnarliest enduro and DH trails while still being a competent climber.

The geometry of the 6061 alloy frame is dialled for taking on every trail. A lengthy reach is combined with a short stem and slack head angle. This offers stability while the short chainstays maintain manoeuvrability in the tight and offer improved cornering performance and jump-ability. The low bottom bracket height offers a real in-the-bike feel and is combined with an ultra-low standover height on all models.

The RockShox Monarch Plus shock controls the 153mm of rear suspension travel while the RockShox Pike delivers 160mm of plush suspension travel up front. Both units features RC3 damping so you can fine tune your ride.

The SRAM X1 drivetrain offers slick shifting while the Shimano XT brakes offer refined stopping control so you can ride the steeps with confidence.
