Special Edition - One of Colourway
As a special edition exclusively for Melbourne Bicycle Centre and Bikes.com.au, this Midnight Blue colourway is not available anywhere else. It gives the Kona Process 134 G2 27.5 a clean, understated look that stands out for all the right reasons on the trail. If you want something a little different from the standard range and unique to our store, this is it.
Built to charge, designed to climb
The Process 153 has earned its reputation as one of Kona’s most versatile long travel platforms. It is a bike that feels planted when the trail gets rough, yet responsive and lively when you are weaving through tight singletrack. Whether you are dropping into bike park lines or tackling rocky descents at your local trails, it is built to stay composed when things get rowdy.
Shimano Deore drivetrain, reliable and proven
Equipped with a Shimano Deore drivetrain, you get smooth, consistent shifting performance that stands up to tough Australian conditions. It is durable, low maintenance and ready for big days in the saddle, exactly what you want when you are far from the car park.
Wheel and tyre setup for real grip
Rolling on WTB ST i30 TCS 2.0 rims laced to Shimano hubs 110x15mm front and 148x12mm rear, this setup is stiff, reliable and tubeless ready.
The tyre combo is dialled Front Maxxis Assegai EXO TR Dual 29x2.5 WT delivers outstanding front end grip and control in loose or rocky terrain. Rear Maxxis Minion DHR II EXO TR Dual 29x2.4 WT provides excellent braking traction and cornering stability.
This pairing gives you confidence when leaning hard into turns or dropping into steep chutes.
Trail ready finishing kit
Kona’s own XC BC 35 handlebar and stem keep steering precise and controlled, while the TranzX RAD internal dropper post with Shimano lever lets you instantly adjust saddle height for climbs or descents. The Kona Trail saddle and Key Grips round out a comfortable, practical build that is ready for long trail sessions.
If you are looking for a serious mountain bike that balances climbing efficiency with downhill capability, the Kona Process 153 is one of the most confidence inspiring options in its class.
