You try take that off road mate your gonna be walking home, or if you take it on a proper down hill course you will be lucky to walk away with your life, death trap alert
hahahahaha....
I hope this was a joke
You should be ashamed of yourselves, you really should
I'm 31, 5'7" plenty to choose from there for me.
Do you have to be 6'4" to be an adult? Just so you know I am ok
with that..
Some people have money to burn, a very similar full suspension bike can be had for much less, and with 50% off at the moment. LINK

]This is not in the slightest bit SIMILAR
Thats amazing, exactly the same spec but for only £50. No wait thats a pile of .....
I really really hope your joking?
LOL that's amazing. Tell you what Goose, I'm doing the Megavalanche this year, you come and race that and I'll be delighted to pay for your race entry. Suggest you spend what you've saved on body armour and a really, really good helmet.
AND A COFFIN
high end bikes tend to have longer top tubes, proportionally, than lower end ones.
i'm talking about mtbs. The Tanuki looks nice.
quick points:
Fit is determined by the TT length
Ride feel is determined by the chainstay length and head angle.
there's more to it than that but it's a good start.

The man Speeketh the truth! I'm 6'4" and my last two bikes have both been 18". They are a lot more controllable on technical parts of a trail and are just as comfy as a bigger frame. As the Fonz once said "if if doubt, sit on it!"
i`m 6` and have a 17" h/t and f/s.
Good prices OP

what a fantastic attitude. most mtbers i've met don't have this attitude at all and welcome new riders.
although, this maybe isn't a good deal if you are new, better to go to your LBS, talk to them and try things, and check for deals there.

What a foolish post. 99% of MTB'ers are decent folk, comfy being in that minority group?
I never had any regrets purchasing by 2010 Caldera, albeit at £670.
If I were in the market for a new HT, I'll give this deal a serious look.
Heat added.
Happy trails..! Think i'd go for this bargain one though- Scanduim frame, great spec, and very light (Kona's arent usually..) chainreactioncycles.com/Mod…087
Depends what sort of cycling your wanting it for, mate. For a lot of downhill stuff, a lot of us are going heavier
Sorry? The Kula Gold is available in all (adult) sizes.
Tempted to go for one of those myself as I've just completed a bike-to-work scheme.

All the ones listed above are available? oO
Kona Kula Gold 16", 17", 18", 19"
Kona Caldera 17", 18", 19"
Kona Cinder Cone 16", 17", 18", 19"
Kona Tanuki Deluxe 18", 19", 20"
So unless your Peter Crouch then you will be fine. Bro is 6ft 4" and 19" fits spot on.
Only if you like your "fanny" to be called "Big Steve" with a hairy back!!
As for what bike is suitable, depends on your use. We both have 400 quid hardtails and find that they really are pushing it on the local tracks. Hence him building the new softy, proper tool for the job. My bike is mainly used for commuting nowadays so I won't be bothering, I got lazy!
Very tempted by the Cinder Cone. What size do you guys recommend for a 6 foot 90kg fatso? Been ages since I was last into MTB. I bought a new GT RTS1 about 15 years ago and then stopped riding.
The biggest 'Gold' is only 19".
Your average bloke 5'10"/5'11" will need a 20".
So nothing for a full grown bloke over 6'.
Indeed Hook,line and sinker... Go team Solar Stealth! Hell Yeah!
Joking aside - if you entered a competition on this and put in Youtube - fame and glory would surely follow (or death)

Why are you tryng to confuse people with this rubbish? I am 5'10" and I ride a 17" in Kona (and most other bikes to be honest). You sound like one of those fools who always buys the largest frame size and looks foolish. I bet you convinced your mother you had size 12 shoes when really you were only a size 9 when you were a teenager too.
