Kona bike

I went at lunch to try out the Kona Dew Drop that I ordered. My initial thoughts on the bike are positive. Brake hoods are comfortable, shifting is easy, the seat isn't terrible, and the bike feels nice to ride around. A couple things bothered me. One being the cheap feeling bar tape, the other was the poorly adjusted gears. Those adjustments will have to be fixed before picking up the bike. The brakes felt soft, but I was told there was a brake (no pun intended) in period for disc brakes. I assume the braking will feel more solid after a few miles of riding/braking.

I will have to go back for another look at the bike on Saturday.
