Kona Sutra (2017)

Not all who wander are lost, but Kona's Sutra is built to take you farther than a Garmin battery and to places fueled by imagination. So leave the GPS at home, grab an actual map and ride till you disappear off the edge of the page. That’s when the adventure truly begins. Kona's efficient, great-handling and smooth-riding chromoly frameset gets up to speed with ease and glides over even the roughest roads. This versatile machine rolls on a quality wheelset with WTB rims, Shimano Deore hubs, stainless steel spokes and mileage-consuming Clement tires. It also boasts excellent components, including powerful Hayes disc brakes for all-weather braking excellence, and a wide-range 27-speed Shimano drivetrain so that you have the right gearing for any terrain and any load. You'll appreciate the supportive, tried-and-true Brooks B17 leather saddle as you pedal over the horizon to parts unknown. The Sutra comes with a rear rack so you can load the bike up and still enjoy a stable and predictable ride and a pair of full fenders to protect you and your cargo.
