Depending on your budget & size, there is a '09 Kona PHD sitting at Jubilee for $999. Race geometry but with flat bars. Should be slightly quicker than your current Kona . | Thanks that bluebook is pretty sweet haha. How is Kona nowadays? The last time I looked at new bikes was when I bought it back in Deep Cove (and it was still made here).

And yeah, most likely that's 2013, not 2012.

Threw on the Michelin Pro 4 Service Course tires onto my wheels earlier. I didn't take them out very far, just around the neighbourhood and back home. Here are my initial thoughts:
- These tires absorb/mask road shock and vibration better than the Michelin Pro 3. The difference isn't significant but noticeable enough.
- Lots of grip (but this could also mean prone to punctures - only time will tell)
- Low, smooth rolling resistance yet provides a good, solid ride
I find that these are a good compromise between the Michelin Pro Race 3 and Continental GP4000s, but closer to it's Michelin predecessor. Again, keep in mind that I only took it around the block so I haven't really broken the tires in nor have I done any hard riding on it with enough mileage.
Price Paid: $36.12 each from Wiggle (just the tires themselves)
Other details:
- Tested on a 2012 Cannondale CAAD10-4.
- Reynolds Solitude wheelset
- I had the Pro 3 tires on the same wheelset earlier this season (now on the Guru.)
I'm a little biased but I like these over the GP4000s.
Edit: dat_steve - Beautiful bike man.

Just got my CRC order today. Ordered on the 21st, got shipped on the 22nd. Super fast shipping! I ordered the Michelin Pro Race 4's with the 2 free tubes and a Kryptonite Evolution S4 Lock to put me over the $99 free shipping threshold.
However I had to pay $30 bucks at my door... people beware
