The Process 134 27.5 is a super versatile bike for a great price. Kona have put the money where it matters with this build to ensure every ride is as good as it gets. A Shimnao Deore 11-speed drivetrain makes quick work of climbs, while a RockShox Recon RL fork and a RockShox Deluxe Select rear shock smooth out all the bumps. All-new WTB ST i30 TCS 2.0 rims are strong and light, which helps keep the big wheels turning quickly.
Rocker Independent Suspension
Different riders have different needs, but trail and enduro riders need a lot of everything - both the best downhill performance and efficient climbing power. With the Rocker independent suspension, Kona found a healthy balance between uphill and downhill. Kona have designed a suspension platform that is compact and as low as possible on the frame, allowing for maximum standover, stability and manoeuvrability. A consistent lever set curve that cushions perfect loads and a stable pedal platform gives the rider a predictable feel throughout the ride.
12 x 142 mm rear axle
12 x 142 mm, 12 x 148 and 12 x 157 rear axle standards offer two main advantages for Kona riders: the 12 mm diameter of the rear axle ensures maximum stability on the rear hub and frame, while the 142/148/157 mm outer diameter of the hub ensures that the wheel is fast and correctly positioned in the frame before the rear axle can be used. From 2016, the 12 x 148 standard will be available as a mix, especially on the new Honzo series. 12 x 148 offers more tyre clearance on the chainstay, while the rear wheel is more stable and durable than a 12 x 142 thru axle.
