The Kona has the better fork out of the two and better brakes..if your looking at both 2012 models....though the 2011 Rockhopper has a lot better spec than the 2012..(better gears and brakes) so If I were you I would go for a 2011 Rockhopper and bag a bit of discount...0

Both are the 2012 models and i feel i am getting just a wee bit ripped off with the spesh's 2012 specs.Pudseyp wrote:The Kona has the better fork out of the two and better brakes..if your looking at both 2012 models....though the 2011 Rockhopper has a lot better spec than the 2012..(better gears and brakes) so If I were you I would go for a 2011 Rockhopper and bag a bit of discount...0 -
Is it a better bike *AL* in your eyes?0

If comparing the two 2012 models then yes the Kona has the better spec of the two....the 2012 spesh is down spec'd from last year....
If you want a 2012 then the Kona...if your not bothered about the year haggle the 2011 spesh down as to me it is better than the 2012's..0 -
Any other guys out there care to add to the debate?0
