Kona’s original Process bikes were a watershed moment in modern mountain-bike development.
BIKE MagazineThe Process 153 can be a handful on technical sections, and it’s not difficult to lose the front tire if you keep your weight over the short chainstays during corneringBicycling
The Kona Process 153 CR/DL 29 is a top-of-the-line bike.

I’ll happily admit I wasn’t immediately convinced with 29” wheels. The feelings of a snappy and playful bike have always resonated with me more than trucking capabilities and rollover capacity. So, I’ve kind of stuck to 27.5” wheels. For most of the 29” bikes that I’ve ridden, it’s hard to not notice the extra inch-and-a-half in diameter, both on the way up and the way down. So, naturally, when I jumped on the Kona Process 153 CR/DL 29, I knew it’d take a lot to change my mind about this whole wheel-size thing. However, the last time I a rode a Process 153, it was the first iteration of the company’s 27.5” model and I was immediately smitten. The thing cornered like a dream yet trucked like a train. It delivered a new standard of playfulness that I hoped every bike afterward would live up to. And so, due to the faith I had in Kona after that experience, I was as curious as I was happy to see how they adapted the Process 153 to work with 29” wheels. As a company rooted in Ferndale, WA, just north of Bellingham, Kona is well aware of the ways in which modern trail bikes are being pushed to the limit, and they’ve certainly done a good job in keeping up with the times. The Process itself is marketed as a “go-everywhere, do-anything workhorse” and its credentials have been continually updated with the ever-changing specs of the industry. So, the question is, can Kona translate the ethos of the Process between wheel sizes? There’s only one way to find out.

Long, low, and flickable, the Process 153 enduro bike is more rip than race.
160mm fork, 153mm frame
Equally capable for technical descending and boosting airs
Weighs 31 pounds (size Large)

The Process has evolved over the years and the latest Kona Process 153 DL 29 sports 153mm of rear travel and a 160mm fork, just like the 27.5in bike.
Solid and bombproof.
Excessively weighty and sluggish.

The latest super-plush RockShox Lyrik RC2 fork and Super Deluxe RCT shock are a stunning pairing in terms of smooth control too, and SRAM’s Code RSCs are my favourite aggro anchors, with 200mm rotors front and rear for extra grunt. . .

Next up in our Field Test series is Kona's big-wheeled 29er enduro bike, this time in carbon fiber.
Surprisingly adept climber
More fun than fast
Extremely stiff and solid feeling
More fun than fast
Not a featherweight
Suspension isn’t as deep or supple feeling as some other bikes

Kona took some of their best alloy bikes and created carbon versions that were on display at the Sea Otter Classic. - Mtbr.com

Many enthusiasts have been waiting for this bike for a long time: the new Kona Process! The previous model was known for its super-fun riding characteristics. The successor should be able to do it all a little better, so we were curious to find out if it could! For an overview of the test fleet […]
