Kona: Hei Hei G9 (Full Suspension)
Description
When Kona were asked to sum up the Hei Hei in one sentence, they said this:
“The Hei Hei is fast, fun, easy to ride, climbs like a mountain goat, descends like a cheetah, is affordable, has no frills but everything you need with its 120mm of front and 100mm of rear travel, and will ensure that you end every ride with a smile on your face. Run on sentences aside, the Hei Hei has been in our lineup for decades because it’s one of the best bikes we’ve ever made. It blurs the line between XC and trail bike and has proved that great ideas evolve into bikes with staying power.”
Of course, we feel much the same way! Here in Richmond, the Hei Hei is light enough to blast around the Tamsin Trail in all seasons, hammer Swinley Forest from time to time and still be usable for a sprint down the river (and a weekend in the Alps). This makes is an ideal companion to your stable, alongside flimsy road/gravel bikes and heavier cargo bikes, for fun and silliness and everything in between.
