I'm new to the forum and have question regarding Kona bikes. I have a DS 2002 Kahuna and having a real hard time with shifting the gears. Basically I don't have the botom third of the gears to shift! I have taken it in to my local authorised dealer 5 times and still have the same problems. I have been told that it was because the front derauller was to high. I have been told it is design fault and because it is a DS that the chain tension can't be set properly so the situation can never be rectified. My question is: is this a common problem? Do I have to change my gear set? Or are these guys flop dicks and just don't how to fix the problem? Any advise or comments would be greatly appreciated!:crash: :crash: :crash: :beer: :beer:
