It's a mixture of the two! the Kaboom was Konas first serious single speed bike (not including the a-ha and humu cruisers), for the first couple of years it was XC based but in 2001 they tried to aim it at the jump bike crowd but it wasn't a great success......they then bought out the Unit
I wanted it because I liked the bad-ass black colour
:evil: heathens...heathens. Goes to show there are some real muppets on stw. I bet a lot of people on stw think an original on one is 'retro' and a Kona Jake the snake a decent road bike.
