I think the coolest thing about this bike is that Kona sells it as a frame only for $700 **CAD**. With sliders and geometry that's a -2° angleset away from awesome, it's a wicked, affordable, multi-project platform that's compatible with the parts kit from almost any Trail/All Mountain on the market.
Buy one this winter, swap over the parts from your full suspension bike, and give your carbon frame a break while you replace the bearings and overhaul the shock. Or heck, give your drivetrain a vacation too and single-speed the Kona for a change of pace. Your Process 134 or 153 parts will swap right over but for the purchase of a bottom bracket, other bikes you'll need a shim for your (smaller diameter) dropper post.
SWEET.
