Description

What looks like a road bike, rides like a dirt bike, is specced like a mountain bike … and just overtook you whilst pulling a wheelie almost as big as the rider’s grin? Our guess: the Kona Ouroboros

So the real question is: which one is best for you?

Well. The Ouroboros Supreme (main image) sold out completely before they reached GB, with the Ouroboros CR/DL (Carbon Deluxe, above) and Ouroboros CR (Carbon, below) becoming increasingly scarce by the day

OUROBOROS SERIES MODELS

“An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will”

The Ouroboros is an all-new platform from the unbound minds at Kona. We bring you three builds– each meant for its own incredibly rowdy ride to the ends of the earth and back. Pack it expertly for the long haul, nimbly explore the edges of singletrack, or complete multiple days of the most wonderfully weird and delightfully chaotic of events. While other gravel bikes may technically tolerate mountain bike components, the Ouroboros is intentionally designed around the rowdy stuff – like 180mm rotors, 2.1 tire clearance, and front suspension, giving you a ride feel that is otherworldly and almost mistakable for a modern trail bike.

THE OUROBOROS SUPREME

Unmatched in ride quality and capability, the Supreme lives up to its name by turning every head it passes – beckoning to those who want nothing holding them back. Remote shifting and dropper? Check. Carbon wheels? Check. 40mm of high-performance front suspension? Oh yeah. You read that right.

THE OUROBOROS CARBON DELUXE

An absolutely stunning gravel bike for those who seek a more traditional look and feel. This creation prioritizes lightweight features and adheres to the sacred and long-established characteristics of a drop bar bike. We’ve thoughtfully spec’d gear steps that are closer together to help you maintain your ideal cadence. With that sweet spot so easy to find, you won’t lose your rhythm – no matter your load or speed.

THE OUROBOROS CARBON

Whether you’re a gravel-loving mountain biker or a mountain-bike-loving gravel biker, the Ouroboros Carbon is the lure to catch the attention of both. We’ve made sure each coin spent is met with corresponding value in shred performance. The Ouroboros Carbon is meant for big things, so we put big things on it – like fat tires, large rotors, a mountain standard dropper post width, and a low, yet wide gear range. Hop on and let the journey unfold.
