House of the Big Wheel Part 1: Honzo and Satori

The House of the Big Wheel is built around the four big bike stories of Kona's 2012 29-inch wheel mountain bike program. On one axis we present the Japanese inspired Honzo and Satori: the Honzo being a gravity/all-mountain Kona Cromoly hardtail, the Satori a 130mm technical singletrack trail slayer. On the other axis, the Hawaiian heritage of the Hei Hei 29, our legendary 100mm XC competition destroyer, balanced with the all-new race royalty, the carbon fiber King Kahuna hardtail. The first film premieres right here right now, as we introduce the Honzo/Satori edit. Filmed in the wild forests and high alpine of the Coast Range, near Squamish, BC, the edit features two of Kona's longtime 29 product testers, Kevin Noble and Trevor Porter. Episode Two, currently in production, will feature Team Kona XC superstars Barry Wicks and Spencer Paxson on the Hei Hei 29 Supreme and King Kahuna.
