The third gen Process 134 is a fine companion for flattering, flowing singletrack.
Loves a flow trail
Quiet
More affordable than many of its direct competitors
Seat tube likely to feel very slack for taller riders
On the heavier end of the spectrum for a carbon trail bike
Not the most proficient climber
Spec is a little outdated, likely owing to Kona's sale and inventory issues
Jul 2024 · Tyler Benedict
Kona refines their process to deliver two trail bikes ready to shred anything, with affordable alloy and dreamy carbon options.

The Kona Process 134 CR/DL29 is a playful and efficient bike that will suit the riding needs of the vast majority of folks, on the vast majority of terrain.
Jun 2022 · Tom Marvin
Smooth suspension and modern shape encourage behaviour some spec choices can’t handle
Modern geometry and super-smooth rear suspension give grip, confidence and speed
Skinny tyres and poor brakes undermine confidence
Climbing performance isn’t spectacular
May 2022 · Guy Kesteven
Can Kona’s flagship mid-travel twenty niner MTB mix efficient climbing with maximum tech terrain enjoyment?
Light, stiff and lively carbon frame
Agile geometry
Really sorted mid-travel suspension
Loves manuals and side knob abuse
29 or 27.5in wheeled versions
No internal storage
Press fit bottom bracket
Peer price bikes often have carbon wheels
