Details

Kona takes their experience from designing XC and backcountry hardtails and applies it to every mountain bike that bears their name. Enter the Blast. Equipped with 27.5-inch WTB wheels and Maxxis tires, it's ready for long days of singletrack and high-speed XC fun. It's built on a lightweight, nimble-handling Kona aluminum frame with trail-worthy components, including a 100mm-travel RockShox fork for control. Combine that with a smooth 27-speed Shimano drivetrain that makes quick work of hills and Shimano hydraulic disc brakes to deliver awesome all-weather, any-conditions stopping power and you're sure to have a blast on this Blast.
