Description: What TheCyclePeople say: For some cyclists, a car is just an unnecessary expense. With a little planning and ingenuity, a bike can replace a car for most local trips. But a basket and panniers is not always enough for the dedicated car-free cyclist. For them, Kona offers the hard-working 2009 Ute, an environmentally friendly utility vehicle.
It?s almost as though someone put together a wish list for the ideal utility bike, and Kona worked off that. The use of 7005 tubing keeps the weight down on this extended wheelbase frame, while still providing a sturdy base for the wooden platform rack. Attached to that rack is a very long pannier for carrying plenty of cargo, even oversized goods. To deal with the extra weight of the bike, rider, and cargo, there?s a Hayes disc brake up front. And while the rack works double-duty as a mudguard, the front wheel gets a proper one as well. Kona thoughtfully provides a center mount kickstand as well.
Available in 18? or 20? models only. Think of it as a two-wheeled SUV. Only better.
