Re: The MTB thread
I've got a kona too.
Don't rave about them though. Iconic in the past but they have lost a lot of their shine in recent years. Snapped a 2005 stinky head tube right off and destroyed the stab they replaced it with... The old crack-and-fail nickname came from the chain and seat stay issues that also happened on my rc100.... I'm thinking of heading over to Cannock in the next few weeks... Will post up on fb. |

Re: The MTB thread
I'm up for Afan soon. Was talking to DMC about it last night.
Got Lily's bike sorted now so will be doing more trips to Cannock.

I'm in Swansea 1st September, 22nd September, 29th September (maybe), 6th October, 20th October, 3rd November. Just so you know afan & Glyncorrwg are virtually the same place but I think Glyncorrwg is the better ride, it's a bit uphill at the beginning but a lot more rewarding once you get to the top. |

Re: The MTB thread
+1 - Some great singletrack out of Glyncorrwg, once you reach the top.
