Quite possibly the perfect New England trail bike. The Kona LeRoi serves up enough travel to soak up the roots and rocks leaving you fresh to hammer the tight n' twisty New England Single-Track. This bike was originally built up by Taber, one of our employees and high end bicycle conniseur. Taber loves to build and look at bikes but it is rare to see him ride one. It was no surprise that the LeRoi was traded away before The Saw ever turned a pedal on it.

Staying within Taber's "Spare No Expense" style, this custom built LeRoi is tricked out from top to bottom. From the matching PINK headset and hubs to the full SRAM X.0 shifting system the LeRoi is a sight to behold. The build also contained some classic Taber additions including the Bontranger Stem, Bar, and Seatpost. Taber always seems to have extra Trangah (Bontranger) stuff lying around.
Now owned and used almost daily by Neal, a part-timer here at Bikeman. Neal loves the bike and raves about how it handles the rooty sections of trail. Neal comes from a hardtail background and never found a full-suspension bike that didn't feel sluggish. The LeRoi was the answer to his full-suspension quandry.
The full-suspension bike a hardtail lover will enjoy. The main frame is made from butted Scandium tubing with a carbon fiber rear triangle. Offering 2.5" of rear wheel travel controled by a Fox Float RP3 Rear Shock. Bikeman is an Authorized Kona Dealer and will have the LeRoi listed for sale on-line today.
