No one wants to be frustrated with one of their first bikes, so we improved the geometry of the lightweight aluminum Kona Makena and increased the standover clearance to make it easy for young riders to get off and on. And the easy to use 1x drivetrain with twist shifter makes gear changes easy. Just add a kid, and let the good times roll.
