Since it’s Bike To Work Day and peeps are sharing their rides, I thought I’d share my commuter. This is a Kona Smoke 29″er. What is a 29″er you ask? That’s the wheel size. Most mountain bikes have 26″ wheels. BMX has (I think) 24″ wheels. These wheels are pretty dang big, which means once they get up to speed, they haul some serious ask.
I’ve had this bike about 6 months and love it. Has mountain bike frame/geometry, so I can still ride down stairs and hop over stuff, but has slick and no suspension, which makes it fast.
Also in the stable are a Kona Stinky for freeride/jumping, and an old school tandem. I love bikes.

Hi Ted,
Very nice Kona Smoke! I will be buying one just a couple of days from now. I would also like to take the fenders off as you did.
Could you tell me what brand and size of tires are you using? Also what is the saddle you changed?
Cheers,
Sebastian
