2010 Kona Minxy - Exclusive first look.
by spoiledgoods
Posted: Aug 7, 2009
The ladies approach to things.
Kona's line up of womens bikes has both all mountain and freeride models. The Minxy marks Kona's female freeride bike and they have worked on it further to be more stable for women on the trail, while still being comfortable, and not too flashy.
