    Kona have had some properly odd names before, what was their SS (I think) that had a name that took up half the top tube?

    Generally all Haiwaiian words I believe.

    Maybe they'll bring it back for Lawman because it will fit on his new spangly long top tube.

    Do they make a "Wikiwiki"? That would be a sensible name for a bike.

    Obviously they thought they'd try and steel some of Cove's thunder.....actually it's a name of a Kenyan Tribe, Christ Froome came from Kenya of course...though I have no idea if that means anything in this context or not!

    I tend to think Giant is a silly name when on a small bike. My neighbour has a Handjob.

    Muni Mula is aluminum backwards (american spelling) it was the first aluminum mountain bike they made.

    Do you reckon they pronounce that in a dodgy way as well?
