    New Konas Arrived This Week

    December 5, 2009 // 1 Comment »

    Earlier this week we received a shipment of 11 new Kona bicycles.  After spending most of the day putting them together, I thought I would take a break and share with you what we have in stock.  THESE NEW 2010 MODELS ARE HOT!

    Looking for a slick new ride with the sportiness of a mountain bike AND the comfort of a more upright handlebar position?

    Check out the new Dew below.

    Personally, I am most excited about the new WorldBike.  It has an internal Shimano 3 speed with fat 26″ tires urban tires and a stealthy flat black paint job.  Simple, smooth and sporty.  Tektro brakes, FSA cranks and sealed bottom bracket enhance the performance of this totally understated urban assault vehicle.

    Since we opened our doors back in July, the Kona Smoke has been one of our best sellers.  We just received 2 of the 2009′s (20 & 22 in) in gloss black and 1 of the 2010′s (18 in).  The biggest change for 2010 with this model is the new flat black paint, FSA cranks and handlebars with a lower rise.  I doubt these 3 will last long.

    Once you get past the hot new red / orange paint and classic raised badge on the head tube, you will see that the hottest upgrade to this year’s Honky Tonk is its Shimano Sora STI shifters.  We have had a 2009 Honky Tonk on our rental fleet since we opened in July 2009 and not only has it withstood countless races and weekend warrior rentals, it has also satisfied some of this market’s most discerning riders through performance and ride-ability.  At just $899, you will not find a better equipped, better built cromoly steel frame road bike for the money.

    Don’t forget the Africabike.  We always have plenty of these in stock.  If you have someone on your Christmas list who needs a simple and rugged 3 speed with a low step over, you should give this Dutch style commuter a closer look.

    Come on in for a test ride.  We now have a wide variety of styles and sizes to meet the needs of most riders.  If we don’t have what you need, we can get it…in most cases next day.

    Thank you for choosing City Bike Tampa!
