Kona Rove LTD - 2021
Details
The Kona Rove LTD is a seriously capable gravel bike that excels in the adventure department. Checkout what makes this bike so darn fun:
Wide Off-Road Tires
As a bike designed to take you wherever you choose to go, the Rove LTD employs ample amounts of rubber (650 x 47c to be exact) that smooths out rough terrain and inspires confidence when you need it most. Set it up tubeless and give yourself the advantage of maximum grip and flat protection.
Super Capable Drivetrain
The Shimano GRX 810 2x11 drivetrain is perfect for adventures on tough backroads in steep hilly regions. You’ll be able to spin up the most brutal hills and hammer down the other side.
Carbon Fork
The Rove Verso Full Carbon flat mount disc fork offers an incredible stiffness to weight ratio. It’s also got three pack mounts for serious bikepacking capability when you need to bring your gear with you.
If you want a bike that’s comfortable and capable on the roughest rides out there, the Rove LTD is just what you need.

KONA CROMOLY
Very few materials offer as much shock absorption, durability and supple-ride characteristics as steel. We’ve never strayed from cycling’s original material and have worked tirelessly to adapt, refine and innovate Kona Cromoly framesets as rider demands continue to evolve.
TUBELESS COMPATIBLE RIMS:
Tubeless rims allow for tires with more puncture resistance; the ability to run lower tire pressure, which provides better tire grip on the trail; lower rolling resistance; and weight savings over traditional tube and tire systems.
650b WHEELS:
650b wheels and tires have a similar overall diameter to a traditional 700c gravel or commuting tire, but with a smaller diameter rim and a wider, taller tire. The extra air volume in this new generation of urban and mixed-surface tires means they can be run comfortably at lower pressures while still rolling quickly on a variety of surfaces. It’s the best of both worlds.
