Kona’s Process X did exactly what I thought it would—absolutely rip on the downs. But how does it stack up in other categories?

Kona Process X CR - in our North America’s Finest showdown

Oct 2023 · Simon Kohler

The Process X CR is the longest-travel bike in Kona’s portfolio. We’ve tested it for you.

Highs
  • Suspension generates tons of traction

  • Composed

  • Short seat tube and long-travel dropper post ensure plenty of freedom of movement

Lows
  • Cables rattle against the frame

  • Rear suspension lacks support

  • Cumbersome in tight trail sections
