comparing the two bikes is never fair unless you testride to similar builds . I know transition is all the rage right now, heck I even ride a dirtbag right now. I personally would rather have a stinky if it were not for the pink color. Kona has a floating rear brake caliper and more standover clearance. They both have great warranty programs. Too bad kona is so last years fad. As far a the bearing vs bushing, Turner has the answers to that one on their website. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v517/mtbbaboon/smilies/crazy.gif

bottom line:

who cares, their both great bikes...its all a matter of prefferance. I personally would buy a transition because I like the looks and I'm not much for Kona. But thats just me.

P.S.
Alot of people fight about Kona and Specialized, but their just to stuborn to admit their both good quality companies.
