The move from their uk distributor to diy distribution will no doubt leave a gap in supply. I know there is nothing in the uk that we're interested in (ss 29er etc) Look beyond Kona. Salsa, surly, singular and probably others that don't begin with S, like niner.

Kona have stopped making the King Kahuna for 2011.

Shame as the spec and scandium frame are great.

I'll be keeping my 2010 for a while yet.

Good luck on finding one, they ride well and don't have wheel clearence issues like some other 29ers.

charlie, I don't quite understand what you mean by

I know there is nothing in the uk that we're interested in

Does "interested in" mean "think are good" or "sell" or "have distribution of/for"?

Edit: I re-read (read properly): no stock of Konas in styles you specialise in?
