KONA OWNER’S MANUAL

with your new bike, you feel that a different tire might

better suit your riding needs, your dealer can help you

select the most appropriate design.

The size, pressure rating, and on some high-performance

tires the specic recommended use, are marked on the

sidewall of the tire [see Fig. 17]. The part of this information

which is most important to you is Tire Pressure.

WARNING: Never inate a tire beyond the

maximum pressure marked on the tire’s sidewall.

Exceeding the recommended maximum pressure may

blow the tire off the rim, which could cause damage to

the bike and injury to the rider and bystanders.

The best and

safest way to

inate a bicycle

tire to the correct

pressure is with

a bicycle pump

which has a built-

in pressure gauge.

WARNING:

There is a safety

risk in using

gas station air

hoses or other

air compressors.

They are not

made for bicycle

tires. They move

a large volume of

air very rapidly, and will raise the pressure in your tire

very rapidly, which could cause the tube to explode.

Tire pressure is given either as maximum pressure

or as a pressure range. How a tire performs under

manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations, and

always check for changes in the handling and braking

characteristics of the bicycle after a suspension adjust-

ment by taking a careful test ride in a hazard-free area.

Suspension can increase control and comfort by allow-

ing the wheels to better follow the terrain. This enhanced

capability may allow you to ride faster; but you must

not confuse the enhanced capabilities of the bicycle with

your own capabilities as a rider. Increasing your skill will

take time and practice. Proceed carefully until you have

learned to handle the full capabilities of your bike.

CAUTION: Not all bicycles can be safely retrotted

with some types of suspension systems. Before retrotting

the suspension of any Kona bicycle, check with Kona to

make sure that what you want to do is compatible with the

bicycle’s design, and whether the warranty will be voided.

Failing to do so can result in catastrophic frame failure.

G) SERVICE NOTES FOR KONA DUAL SUSPENSION

• While Kona suspension systems are very torsionally

rigid and require less maintenance than a single pivot

design, bearings and bushings will wear out. Bushing

kits

and replacement rear stays are available from Kona.

• Cartridge bearings give the suspension a smoother

ride. These bearings also require more attention than do

bushings. Contaminated bearings can rust & seize, and

cause frame damage. Regularly inspect the bearings and

make sure that they allow the linkage to move freely.

H) TIRES AND TUBES

1. TIRES: Bicycle tires are available in many designs and

specications, ranging from general-purpose designs to

tires designed to perform best under very specic weather

or terrain conditions. If, once you’ve gained experience
