KONA ROVE AL | A Gravel Bike That Connects Everyday Riding with Adventure
Ride through the city and keep going onto the dirt. A light and easy way to explore just a little farther beyond your everyday routes.
Set off with ease, and before you know it, you may find yourself riding farther than usual. The KONA ROVE AL is the kind of bike that naturally expands where your rides can take you.
Its lightweight and durable 6061 butted aluminum frame features modern gravel geometry designed to deliver a stable, comfortable ride on pavement and reassuring control on unpaved roads.
