have a blast of a time
Review of Kona Blast by
 danrugby2005
Advantages: great frame
Disadvantages: expensize
...PECIFICATIONS
Tires: Tioga Terra Firma The tires are very grip and are pretty strong and puncture resistant.
Frame: double-butted, 7005 aluminium The frame is very light as you would expect if it's made of aluminium and the lightness does not take away the durability in this case.
Seat: SDG comfort comp This seat is very comfortable I took this bike out on a day ride to test it and the ache in my bottom was significantly lower than my old bike.
Handlebar: kalloy aluminium riser The handle bars are a nice length and they turn nicely but sometimes get a bit sticky if over oiled.
Grips: kona moose knuckle The grips don't lose there grip with sweaty hands much atall and are nice and soft on the hands compared to other bike grips.
Suspension: marzocchi MZ-comp 100mm travel fork. The suspension can take alot of shock of jumps...

The first couple of rounds I played were fine. Comfortable, didn't let in the water, and with their new soft spike system they kept my feet firmly anchored to old terra firma when I was taking a swing.
Then I played in a prestigious Scratch Cup that I had been gearing up to make a run at for ages. From about the third hole the trouble started! The constant ache in the ball of my left foot was bad enough, but then my heels began to rub on the high heel backs, and by the end of the first nine holes I was nearly crippled, and my only thought was to get the damn things off my feet as soon as humanly possible. I was in agony, and all thought of performing well...

...including customised drilling from your local pro shop. It’s available in loads of coulours, including a favourite of mine, terra green!
· Columbia White Dot – Similar price to the Boogie, just from a different company. Go to: www.columbia300.com for more information.
Something a bit more fancy, gets you notice, and generally makes you smile when it’s rolling down the lane!
· Brunswick Viz-a-ball – Have your favourite company’s logo stamped on your ball, or maybe a leopard skin one suits you better. There’s a great selection at www.brunswick.com. These cost you about £100.
· Ebonite Skull Ball – A ball made of clear resin, with a mock skull sunk in the middle of it. This is just unbelievable to see, go here for a picture: www.petesproshop.co.uk/skullball. It will cost you £100, but is worth...
