The only thing magical about the 2008 Kona Coilair with Magic Link this year has been their elusiveness. I have yet to see one in person and my attempts at getting on a demo bike have been cut off at the pass. So, I’m left to wait until Interbike Outdoor Demo this Fall until I can swing a leg over the Coilair.
For 2009, the Coilair goes through the refinement machine as some new features and tweaks are introduced. For starters, the entire front triangle is new with a tapered head tube (1 1/8″ upper and 1 1/2″ lower cup), beefed-up downtube, new, beefier rocker-arms and refined Magic Link. The new paintjobs are also stunning. Here are the details of these new Enduro/Freeride bikes from Kona.

foot of April flake just buried the 'Bird, the Crack House is warming
up and the Rollercoaster's drying out. Epic spring lines are calling
and you better be dialed. From 
You can see a magic link bike in person at go-ride - they’ve had one in there since March.
Yeah… you’re right. I have seen one there in passing, but I haven’t taken the time to take it for a test ride. They don’t have any in their demo fleet though. Thanks for the heads up. I guess I’ll just wait until the Outdoor Demo.
I have one if you want to come ride it. 19″ Supreme, I love it the funnest bike I have owned. I am down in Orem if you’re interested.
Taylor… I may take you up on your offer. But, I’ll likely get on a 2009 in a month, so no worries. I’ll ping you if I want to take you up.
