Best praise vs top criticism for Kona Dew
Best Praise
+3 pts“How, I'm 6'1" and have a Kona Dew-E XL. I put a rear rack and handlebar bag so very useful. And having Shimano mid drive motor it can handle hills just fine. I'm in Seattle. Comes with fenders and lights.”

+1 pts“The Fairfax 2 or FX2 are very similar bikes, and both perfectly good options. I'm less of a fan of the Kona dew, although that is a lot because of personal preference. I find the style to just look quite odd.. Like a weird blend of cruiser/bmx and fitness bike. I think the parts are a bit cheaper on the base model compared to the other 2 as well.”
