ANSWER: Hello Joe,

It's time to find an expensive bike... it ain't easy to give you a estimate of how much your dreambike will cost. That I can't do, simply because of the fact I don't know how the price
are in the US (I'm getting the feeling your from there).
Kona isn't the brand I know well.
But any good and expensive bike has their (dis)advantages, and it is hard to give you such a list. Go find some more details about the bike you like, and maybe I can tell you more about it later on.
At this moment I simply can't help you.
Find a good local bikeshop near you, and ask them to put you on a fully.

Best regards and good luck.

Joe

Answer
Hi Joe,

I apologize for mistaking me for the country.
But simply I couldn't tell that before.
Thanks for your rating.
For me a shame that you rate me lower than my average of more than 250 questions ;-(
May I ask why? In your question, there are so many bikes who can fit you in your demands.
So it ain't that simple to forfill your needs in this.

In any way, just ask me again if you feel the need for it.

with the best regards,

PS Please let me know which bike you'd decided to buy later.

thanks

Mick
