...This new Kona Roast features a 7005 downhill alloy frame, a marizocci z5 fly lite air suspension, a drive chain consisting of a race face pordigy chainset and shimano deore LX front and back derallieurs, deore shifter, 9 speed cassette and XT cranks. Having bought this bike I was shiocked at just how good value for money it was, Wioth AVID V brakes and Tioga Down Hill factory tyres It handled like a BMX. This wasn't the first KONA I ever owned, owning a nunu a few years ago 'til I smashed the frame jumping. Even I won't be able to break this Roast frame. I conclude an excellent allround bike for the money...

Advantages: Good balance, light and fast. Disadvantages: None that I can see.
...smashing off at distance.
I have used this rod for fishing with small floats under the rod tip to large 2 swan wagglers casting up to 40 yards and fishing in 12 feet of water.
I have a shimano ultgera rod which was very expensive but when it comes to fishing the waggler on a still water then Odessa is the one I reach for every time. I have landed carp to 10lb on 1.7lb line without any trouble and this rod has more than paid for its self in fishing matches, catching bags of silver fish both under the rod tip to fishing at 30 yards.
If you can get hold of one of these rods now, do so as it will be one of the best purchases you are likely to make....

Obviously it will not be found in the bags of current professionals and many club golfers but it will always be a thoroughbred in the ranks of all time irons. If given a chance to ever purchase a set of these, or to use the popular 2-iron or sand wedge from the series, it is hard to look past them.
As a professional, I can stand by the quality of ping and especially this iron. I still do own several of these irons although not in my current bag set up, I would class them in my back-up range and that says a lot for an iron that was produced around two decades ago....

Imagine real tomatoes from your garden that have not been made to artificially turn red by pumping a gas in the glasshouse, and not been grown in water only to have the nitrates it need to be added by a machine :(
