Here's a closer look at what makes the Kona Remote stand out: Key Features: Kona 6061 Aluminum Frame The Remotes frame is made from Kona's 6061 Aluminum, a material renowned for its durability, strength, and light weight. This alloy is extensively used in Kona's lineup, ensuring that the Remote can withstand the rigors of aggressive trail riding while still being light enough to handle with ease. The frames tubing is butted and formed to optimize the balance between strength and ride quality. Shimano E-Bike Technology At the heart of the Remote is the Shimano E7000 drive unit, providing a maximum assisted speed of 25 km/h. Paired with a 504Wh battery, this motor delivers smooth, consistent power, making steep climbs more manageable and extending your riding range significantly. The Shimano SC-E7000 display offers clear, intuitive control over the various assist modes and provides essential ride data. 140mm Front Suspension The Remote is equipped with a Suntour Zeron35 fork, offering 140mm of front suspension travel. This fork is designed to absorb the impacts of technical trails, allowing you to tackle rough terrain with confidence and comfort. Reliable 10-Speed Drivetrain The bike features a Shimano Deore 10-speed drivetrain, which is known for its reliability and smooth shifting performance. With a wide gear range (11-46t), youll have the versatility to handle everything from steep climbs to fast descents. Powerful Braking System To keep all that power in check, the Remote comes with Shimano MT410 hydraulic disc brakes. The 203mm front rotor and 180mm rear rotor provide ample stopping power, even in wet or muddy conditions, ensuring that you can maintain control no matter the situation. Tubeless Compatible Rims The WTB ST i35 TCS 2.0 rims are tubeless-compatible, allowing you to run lower tire pressures for improved grip and comfort while also reducing the risk of flats. This feature is particularly beneficial when riding on rocky or uneven trails. 12x148mm Boost Rear Axle The 12x148mm Boost axle standard enhances the bikes rear-end stiffness and stability, which is critical for maintaining precise handling and control on rough trails.
