2020 Kona Unit. It's a rigid steel single-speed 29er. Rack mounts, fender mounts, barnacles all over it. Boost spacing, bolt-in through axles, 160/180 hydraulic disc brakes- this bicycle doesn't have a single cable on it. It weighs 26.2 pounds once I dumped the tubes (it came tubeless ready).
I love steel bikes. This is my first one with modern geometry- short stays, long top tube, short stem, 68-degree head angle, and 750mm wide handlebar.
The 2.6" tires are a new thing for me also. I like them.
It comes with a derailleur hanger and a full-width freehub, so if I want to run it 1x12, I can do that. It also comes with a suspension-corrected fork, so if I decide at some point down the road to add a suspension fork, I can do that too.
And it was pretty cheap- I think MSRP is only about $1,199, and I was able to order it for less than that.
