I always thought Kona was more US than anything else but pretended to Canadian to be more cool with certain potential customers. Their old advertising has more of a US theme with a focus on made in the USA on certain frames, and Stars and Bars paint jobs...

I would like to enter my Cirrus, but I believe this RM model was welded in Japan.
I'm somewhat disappointed with this restriction that's been placed. It's almost like someone telling me that I'm not Canadian since I wasn't born here. :roll:
The alternative I would have entered if I had the time to complete before nominations closed is my Syncros/XTR RM Titanium build. But again, I believe this frame was welded in the US by Sandvik.

I should get my finger out and build my bike back up I guess, but it has modern stuff dripping off it, that and the large scrapes of paint I took off it seeing how bad the rust was and well I wouldn't vote for it.
Could stick the Fusion in if we're bending the rules a bit since nobody knows enough about these thing to be certain to chuck them out (well other than throw Kona's out)
