    Well its not though is it?

    Its a ten year old frame without a shock, by the time you build it up its going to cost more than a half decent 2012 factory built bike.

    Id be surprised if even a die hard Kona fan would buy that.

    You could probably buy a whole Kona full susser bike from 2002 for about £269.

    Yeh I was having a browse whilst waiting for some stuff at work earlier.

    First thing that caught my eye was a Cove Shocker with DHX 5.0 shock down to under a grand.

    Then I spotted a Commie team DH frameset with DHX RC4, Fox 40s, carbon haven bars and so on. Just under £2400.

    tbh, I can't REALLY afford either right now, but I'm still very tempted.

    Likewise

    The Meta AM Team frameset looks awesome but I cannot justify that sort of cash with a new baby due in just over a month.........we can dream......... :)
    If at first you don't succeed, spend some more money on kit!

    What Commencal need to do is bring back the old/green team colours and do the meta AM in full carbon, damn that would niceee
