theres an auction on ebay im interested in on the kona king kikapu. im kinda looking for a kikapu currently but im worried that the 2001 model has poor geometry. does anyone know anything about it? should i get this vs a newer model? whats a good XC bike to get opposed to this one? my budget is about 800 on ebay

Check out this site: http://www.kona.dk/

I just looked on that site and the newest model that had the same seat tube design as the one on eBay was made in 1998. The 99 and up bikes all basically look the same. I would say the the bike frame is older than the seller is claiming.
