Kona have released a new utility bike.
You may already be familiar with the Kona Ute (look here if you are not), and now there is another utility bike from Kona, too!
It's called the MinUte, and is a shorter wheelbase version of the Ute (and is priced at 200 pounds sterling less as well!).
The MinUte has a full 5 inches shorter wheelbase than the Ute (45 or 46 inches for the Minute, depending on frame size, compared with 50 or 51 inches for the Ute), although it is still about 2 1/2 inches longer than Kona's third utility offering, the AfricaBike Three.
While the AfricaBike Three is considerably cheaper than the MinUte, the Minute comes with a pair of fairly large-sized pannier bags included, and thus makes an easy choice for someone looking for an off-the-peg bike for grocery runs, etc., and with its claimed 300 pound load capacity (including rider), most folks, except perhaps American Footballers, will be able to carry a good amount of cargo.
