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Spec is a little outdated, likely owing to Kona's sale and inventory issues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 · Ryan Palmer
Think full-suspension bikes require too much maintenance? This bike will prove you wrong.
Mar 2022 · Guy Kesteven
Can Kona’s ‘mountain biker’s mountain bike’ prove 27.5in wheels still have a place for hard rallying riders?
Top spec rear shock and tires
Tight, responsive rear end
High control brakes
Plenty of tire room
External controls for easy servicing
Front end lacks stiffness and confidence
Feels steeper and shorter than it is
Sits high relative to axles
Below par component value
Relatively heavy
