Kona Fire Mountain Hardtail Bike 2021 features

Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Mountain Bikes. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Kona Fire Mountain Hardtail Bike 2021.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Kona Fire Mountain Hardtail Bike 2021 is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Mountain Bikes. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Mountain Bikes. Brands like Kona are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Mountain Bikes category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.

Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

• Description: Kona Fire Mountain Hardtail BikeThe Kona Fire Mountain is a superb hardtail mountain bike that’s ideal for singletrack trail riding and bike park loops. With a 6061 aluminium frame that’s designed with modern enduro-inspired geometry in mind, this bike is lightweight, durable, fast and agile while also being comfortable for long days in the saddle. Plus, it features SR Suntour suspension forks, a Microshift wide-ranging 9-Speed drivetrain and Tektro hydraulic disc brakes, giving you a superb component spec that’s ideal for riding anywhere.Microshift Advent 9-Speed DrivetrainThis Kona classic brings some of the finer things to light. The Fire Mountain is equipped with the modern Microshift Advent 9-speed drivetrain that ensures smooth gear shifts while its Tektro hydraulic disc brakes guarantee exceptional braking power in all weather conditions. With adjustable 100mm of Suntour suspension and sturdy WTB tyres aboard wider 27mm rims, the Fire Mountain helps build confidence for riding anywhere on the mountainside. Kona 6061 AluminiumKona 7005 and 6061 Aluminium alloys are used extensively throughout their range of mountain and asphalt bicycles. A tough, durable, light alloy, both Kona 7005 and 6061 deliver fantastic, reliable performance that lasts for thousands of rides. Much of our 7005/6061 tubing is butted and/or formed, meaning the tubing’s wall thickness can be increased or decreased, as well as shaped, so they can fine-tune a particular frame’s strength and ride characteristics depending on its intended application. Tapered Head TubeMore girth at the bottom of the head tube better distributes shock force, prolonging the bearing life of the headset itself and eliminating brake shudder, while providing confident steering performance. The inherent strength of its triangular design also means a stronger steering position and improved balance, giving the rider more control in rough terrain. A zero-stack, tapered head tube also puts strength where the load is going‚Äîinto the lower headset cup‚Äîmaximizing bearing durability where it’s needed. 27.5‚Äù WheelsThe benefits of the 27.5-inch wheel are simple: they roll over obstacles and track better than 26-inch wheels but are more manoeuvrable and nimbler than 29-inch wheels.
