    2009 Kona Coilair Supreme

    2009 Kona Coilair Supreme, Deluxe and Coilair – Sneak Peak

    6
    By Jason Mitchell on July 24, 2008 Mountain Biking, New Gear

    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.

      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.

      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.

      i just bought the coilair deluxe and the magic link is pretty magical. it is very stiff up hills with no pedal bob and it seems like it has an endless amount of travel off of drops and jumps. i havn’t been able to bottom it out yet no matter how big the obstacle.

      I had this 2009 coilair deluxe.. It’s so awesome to DH trail and free rides, great for climbing, rocky terrains and big jumps. Had an awesome balance kicking off sharp curves. Love this bike..
