Kona Stinky 24 (2014)

The world’s best 24-inch dual-suspension bike gets a facelift this year—the seminal Stinky 24 has never looked so good. The new frame design lowers the profile of the rockers, cleaning up the lines of the bike and noticeably increasing the supple feel in the back end. After years of pushing suspension manufacturers, we finally have a 24-inch specific fork! The Spinner Cargo 24 100mm fork keeps the front end low making this one dialed ride. We’ve kept the ubiquitous H-hanger, easily sourced and inexpensive so that minor crashes don’t require a new derailleur, all to keep budding freeriders on the trail longer and more at ease when jumping and lifting up over obstacles.
