There is the bike forum and the chat forum.

No groups here, just lots of niches and general bitchness between people.

Make sure you never, NEVER post a picture of your bike up here with getting the pedals level, logos lined up with the valves, garden fence frshly painted, lawn mowed and house brickwork repointed.

There are only three fora - chat classified and bikes. Forum summary gives you the recent posts in both chat and bike

You'll find every make/colour/material/wheel size of a bike will provoke lovers and haters. It's all part of the joy of this forum ๐Ÿ™‚

You'll get flamed whatever you say or do. That's the way it is on here, I'm afraid. The only way to survive is to have a thick skin and be prepared to give as good as you get.

Really it's OK on here, just takes a bit of getting used to.

P.S. Ignore hora/mark horacheck/cantonhora/jesus loves chui/caleb. They are all the same guy, and somewhat adjacent to reality!!!

P.S.#2 Don't ever ask what tyres are suitable for.....

Do you like your Kona? , if the answer is yes then why should you give a s**t what anyone else thinks.

To be honest the spelling mistakes are more likely to get your flamed than your choice of bike! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Konas are plenty popular but anyway, WGAF what other people think of your bike.

It's rubbish though, innit ๐Ÿ˜‰

Don't worry, if you're bike wasn't hand crafted by a bearded man in a shed then you're an outcast I'm afraid !! also you'll get negative points for normal sized wheels & more than one gear ๐Ÿ˜‰

just agree with everything TJ says and you'll be fine......

You said 'get your flamed' instead of 'get you flamed'. You idiot.

Could be worse, you could have admitted to owning a Marin
I've had to buy an on-one to restore my self worth and stop the self harming

Craig chances are it will get flamed but do it anyway as secretly everyone likes looking at pics of other peoples bike.

Dont take it to heart they not all as horrible as they sounds really ๐Ÿ™‚

Where are you based?

Nowt wrong with Konas, esp if you've tweaked it to suit you best. Enjoy it.

I was just referring to [url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/whats-the-best-way-to-service-a-kona-frame-and-how-long-should-it-take ]This Thread[/url] of a couple of days ago. Kaesae appeared to [s]have lost the plot[/s] be trying too hard and was getting a bit [s]loads[/s] of ribbing.

My 1st full suss was a Kona Dawg Primo 06. I loved it then and although I replaced it with a Nomad I have never got rid of it. I'll build it up again one of these days.
