This week’s #refurbfriday is a Kona Smoke, a steel-frame mountain bike that’s around 25 years old and still has plenty of life left in it.

We gave it a modern 1x9 drivetrain, Vittoria Mezcal tires, and upright bars for a more comfortable riding position. A classic bike with a few updates that make it a total ripper for riding around town or hitting the trails. #konabikes #steelisreal #atlbikelife #bikerebuilds
