Mountain Bike Fit Tip: When sizing a mountain bike like this, standover height is crucial. You want at least 2-3 inches of clearance between you and the top tube for sudden dismounts on technical terrain. Remember that suspension sag (usually 20-30%) will slightly lower the bike once you are seated.
What to Do if You Are Between Kona Sizes?
If your height falls squarely on the borderline between two sizes for the Kona Mountain, Trail & Fat Bikes (Big Honzo, Cinder Cone, El Kahuna, Fire Mountain, Hei Hei, Lana’i, Lava Dome, Mahuna, Ouroboros, Process, Remote, Shonky, Woo), don’t panic.

Choosing the smaller option gives you a shorter reach to the handlebars, creating a more upright riding position. Opting for the larger frame extends the wheelbase, delivering a highly stable ride at high speeds.
How to Measure Your Height for an Accurate Fit
Don’t guess your height when investing in a new bike. For the most accurate measurement, take off your shoes and stand with your back entirely flat against a wall. Look straight ahead, place a book flat on top of your head, mark the wall, and measure the distance to the floor. Use a flat-edged object or book resting horizontally on your head to mark the point accurately against the wall before running a tape measure to the floor.
