Kona Unity Gloss Future Dusk

The Kona Unity is a no-compromise expedition hardtail built for riders who want one bike to do everything — and then carry half their life while doing it. Sitting at the crossroads of mountain biking, gravel riding and deep-wilderness bikepacking, the Unity is engineered around stability, strength and load-carrying confidence.

A butted chromoly steel frame, mixed wheel setup and geometry optimised for riding fully loaded keep handling calm and predictable on rough terrain. With a custom integrated front cargo rack, massive frame bag space and ultra-durable components throughout, the Unity is built to go further, carry more and thrive where conventional bikes fall apart.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Purpose-Built Expedition Frame:Butted chromoly steel frame with oversized front triangle, sliding dropouts and UDH compatibility for loaded reliability.
• Integrated Cargo Carrying:Custom frame-mounted front rack keeps steering stable while supporting serious bikepacking loads.
• Design: Built with a butted chromoly steel frame, it offers a "steel-is-real" ride feel optimized for carrying heavy loads, often with an oversized front triangle for specialized frame bags.
• Mixed Wheel (MX) Formula: Uses a 29-inch front wheel for rollover capability and a 27.5-inch rear wheel for strength, lower center of gravity, and increased clearance for saddlebags.
• Drivetrain & Brakes: Often equipped with 11-speed or 12-speed drivetrains (such as Shimano Linkglide) and 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes to handle high-load braking.
• Geometry: Features a stable, long, and slack geometry designed specifically to remain composed while fully loaded for long-distance expeditions.
• Usage: It is considered a dedicated "bikepacking mule" rather than a traditional mountain bike.
