As if a respectable company like Kona would call one of their bikes Foreplay, really.
given it was the top of their Sex range, I assume that comment is tongue in cheek ;)
As you well know, Mr Ling, SEX stood for Suspension EXperience, so both names were a perfectly innocent invitation to enjoy the potential of the new type of bicycles that could bounce up and down at both ends.

I'm not sure though whether the meaning of King Kahuna is similarly innocent. What do they make of it round your way?

surely you mean tongue 'in between' cheeks? :oops: :oops:

it's monday for gawd's sake. Bit early in the week. I guess they stopped bringing out the Kona Hard Ass - 'Allterrain Suspension System'

Nah, that bike was lower down in the range surely, inbetween the better Kona 'quick fumble' and inferior kona 'roll over afterwards and fall asleep'

Don't ask what the jargon stands for btw :wink:

Mr Anthony, its ok there's no need to be so formal with the replies ;)

I'm assuming that you're not seriously suggesting that the double entendre in the naming of these bikes was purely by accident. Or that Sex Too for example was an unfortunate typo that made it into production??

The marketing men at Kona have a history of using the names of their bikes and components to create a stir and it would be very naive to think otherwise.
