hey

The 2007 kona stinky is retailing for about £900 now, so you could get one of them.

I've got one at the minute and there great. If your from the united kingdom then Evans Cycles deal them.

Only problem is that they are still expensive with them. Again; if your from the UK then pick up a copy of Mountain Biking UK (MBUK) from a supermarket and lots of companies are selling the 2007 still.

Hope this helps!
