I emailed Kona and the answer is still murky. I asked for a specific a-c limit on the Unit and they said "the max value is as noted" and "if your frame fails your warranty will be void." noted, meaning that a 100mm fork is the limit. that's not really an answer because it's not a specific measurement. however, I think it's safe to say that nearly every 29er fork with more than 100mm of travel will have an a-c that is longer than what they had in mind, so you'll be SOL if you break it.
Yeah, I just need a break. that's too bad, because the weather is perfect right now. nine months out of the year it close to 100° F (40°C) all day with high humidity. I can't break away from my studies though. I thought I was too old to go back to school, but my income is not even keeping up with the cost of living, let alone my bike habit.
Hope you're feeling better soon!
