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 Road Bikes. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Kona Sutra LTD Adventure Road Bike 2021.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Kona Sutra LTD Adventure Road 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 Road 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 Road 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 Road 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.


Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Road Bikes.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. 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. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

Kona Sutra LTD Adventure Road Bike 2021 Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

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.

As we said in the pricing part of the review, brand is a really important consideration, but especially so when looking to buy Road Bikes. But as you’re probably already aware, you’re on to a great choice if you do go with Kona, as they’re a fantastic brand, making amazing products.

  • Description: Kona Sutra LTD Adventure Road BikeThe Kona Sutra LTD provides the perfect balance between long-distance touring reliability and comfort, combined with exceptional off-road performance, agility and control. Its engineered with a Chromoly frameset for the utmost dependability and comfort while being driven forwards by a SRAM Rival 11-Speed drivetrain and has powerful Rival hydraulic disc brakes to control your momentum in all-weather conditions. SRAM Rival 11-Speed Groupset with Hydraulic Disc BrakesThe Sutra LTD provides riding efficiency, reliability and comfort that expands your riding potential. It’s ideal for epic journeys on the road and gives you the confidence to detour off the beaten track, down forest trails and along mountain ridges. Its top-quality Chromoly steel frame is equipped with an 11-speed SRAM Rival 1 drivetrain and brakes with 160mm rotors, providing ample power to climb hills and control your speed in all weather conditions. Plus, its Velo Shock-proof bar tape keeps the vibrations down and WTB Venture TCS 700x50c tyres make quick work of difficult terrain. Kona ChromolyVery few materials offer as much shock absorption, durability and supple-ride characteristics as steel. Kona has never strayed from cycling’s original material and has worked tyrelessly to adapt, refine and innovate Kona Chromoly framesets as rider demands continue to evolve. 12mm Thru Axles12x142mm, 12×148 and 12×157 rear axle standards provide two major advantages to the Kona rider: the 12mm diameter of the rear axle provides the rear hub and frame with a stiff interface, while the 142/148/157mm outer diameter of the hub allows the wheel to be quickly and properly positioned in the frame before the rear axle is inserted. For 2017, you’ll see the 12×148 Boost standard in the mix. Boost spacing provides more tyre clearance at the chainstay yoke, while the rear wheel is stiffer and more durable relative to a 12×142 thru-axle. Tubeless Compatible RimsTubeless rims allow for tyres with more puncture resistance; the ability to run lower tyre pressure, which provides better tyre grip on the trail; lower rolling resistance; and weight savings over traditional tube and tyre systems.
