Interesting, I started MTB in South Dakota more recently in 2017. The shop only carried Rocky and Kona. I told the dealer I was thinking about getting a Stumpjumper. The owner was like oh no, and proceeded to tell me what a sick brand Kona was. Definitely fit my skate vibe more than big S did, so I bought a 153.
I noticed the shop doesn't sell Konas anymore, the owner must have been fed up with them...in light of his passion for Kona, that was the writing on the wall for me
