From the handmade days into a Wal-Mart brand now.. Very much a similar story to GT, Raleigh or Muddy Fox.
I'd liken Kona to Saracen (and add to this Voodoo) as brands who went chasing sales and trying to be all things to all people in the late 90's, but are now clawing their way back to some degree of respectability and making some decent products.
