Kona's are the weed of the addicts world, plentiful, good fun and relatively harmless. They don't always lead onto the harder things but some people may be susceptible to progression from them. In my case I ended up doing lines of pace in photo shoots. I flirted with crack (a 1994 ManitouHT) and am worried I may start mainlining the more boutique end of the component Market in the absence of finding room to inject more complete bikes into the collection.
My house is a sordid drug den, except not sordid and full of blingy bikes.
I like this!!
What can we fit into these categories:
So "weed" bikes are Kona/GT/Marin?/Specialized - give a timeless hit and don't seem to go out of fashion.
"Cocaine" bikes - Pace/Orange/Yeti/Mountain Goat - more expensive but reasonably safe considering the hit you get
"Crack" bikes - Manitou/Klein - any others?? - expensive, a bit hit but it's gonna damage you, maybe not straight away but very soon!!
And how about "LSD" bikes - long drawn out high/experience, old fashioned but people in the know love it!! Potential for long term mental problems........ 80's Saracens/Double Ubrake/rollercam bikes/anything with cow-horns/flouro Muddy Fox's etc etc.
