Kona Wozo (2017)
What do you get when you combine the fat-daddy Wo with the shred-tastic Honzo? Wozo, naturally, Kona’s gluttonous get-rad machine for those who can’t help but ride like madmen on any two-wheeled object in sight. Insanely short, 420mm chainstays on the flyweight aluminum frame put you in the hot seat for raucous acceleration and twisty singletrack domination, while a 100mm Bluto fork eats up extra-gnarly terrain to crank up the fun dial. With a 4.8-inch Jumbo Jim tire plowing up front and a 4.0-inch throttling up at the rear, you’ve got a recipe for rowdy. SRAM and RaceFace got together to spec Wozo’s crisp 1x11 drivetrain, so you can crawl up the softest hills and blast down gravity-rich descents. Shimano’s hydraulic brakes easily slow down those huge tires, so you can push it a little harder. For fat fun anywhere, in any weather, Wozo is your go-to.
