2021 Kona Honzo DL Bike
The Good
Absolute blast to ride, tough, adjustable dropouts, good geo, loads of standover, lots of tyre clearance
The Bad
Some rubber grommets around the internal cable routing ports would've been nice.
Sliding dropouts came loose on a ride once

Overall Review
Ibought this as a frame and have built it up with Shimano slx 170mm cranks, deore drivetrain & brakes, wtb i29 wheels and a Z2 140mm fork, and 2.6 specialized butcher/purgatory tyres, superstar pedals & brandx dropper, Its just under 14kg. Paint job is gorgeous too. This is the 2021/22 bike , but frame is same for 2023/24 bike Frame is well thought out, massive tyre clearance even on 2.6s thanks to nicely sculpted stays. Lots of standover clearance too. Its not as slack as the ESD, but Z2s ride
