One that you don't have to worry about flipping switches on just to continue your ride.

A Rock Shox Yari fork and Deluxe rear shock provides a supple and smooth ride, the SRAM NX/GX 11-speed drivetrain provides all the gears you need to make it up the steepest climbs, and SRAM Level brakes provide incredible stopping power when descending steep chutes.If you are looking for a bike that can handle everything you want to ride, the Kona Process needs to be your next bike.
