Kona bikes are great. I have owned three, my wife owns one, most of my friends own at least one or are planning to buy one. For an urban hardtail they have 4 models to choose from the Scab, the Stuff, the Roast and the Chute. All great bikes with well thought out components and bombproof frames. Below is a pic of my buddys '01 Roast, he is 6'1" and over 200 lbs and this bike has taken everything he has thrown at it, huge drops to flat, dirt jumping, trials type stuff and BMX style street riding.
