    I wouldn't say it was a steal..... Good fork and wheels..... Light ish frame. I'd rather put 900 quid to a build of my own... Such as a ragley or a scandal

    Yes, they are good.

    IIRC, this is the year (may be the one before) that Kona seemed to have really long head tubes, thus if you want the handle bars really low, it takes a bit of doing.
