Hi
This maybe a bit thick but here goes: Kona Kula has a "Kona Race Light 7005 Aluminium Butted Frame"
Is this just a plain old 7005 aluminium double butted frame?? i.e. the same as what the old Cinder Cone was made out of around 1999-2001 as i have an old cinder cone frame from 2000 lying in the garage.
If not then what is so special with race light 7005 double butted aluminium?
Thanks

I have a feeling that kona have downspecced some of their bike frames on certain models as years have gone by.

You can't beat a marathon. Not too sure on those snickers..not sure of what exactly but they remind me of an old chocolateConstantly trying to upgrade my parts.It is a long road ahead as things are so expensive for little gain. n+1 is always the principle in my mind.0
