Joe spent six months last year on the Kona Rove LTD and took it on multiple bikepacking trips in New England and countless day rides. Here's the review.
Stable descending, especially with bikepacking bags
Premium finish
Solid design and spec choices, neither all the fads nor lamentable boomer grouchiness
Stiff

Not especially a bargain (but not absurd, either)
