Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Frame geometry
2023 Kona Process 134 DL has 20 mm more reach than 2016 Kona Process 134 DL in the selected sizes.
More reach puts the head-tube reference farther forward, not necessarily the hands.
- Frame geometry
2023 Kona Process 134 DL has 10 mm more stack than 2016 Kona Process 134 DL in the selected sizes.
More stack places the frame reference higher, not necessarily the handlebar.
- Handling
2023 Kona Process 134 DL has a 2.5° slacker head-tube angle than 2016 Kona Process 134 DL in the selected sizes.
Fork offset, tire size and wheelbase also affect steering; head angle alone is not a handling verdict.
- Gearing
2023 Kona Process 134 DL has a 16% lower climbing ratio than 2016 Kona Process 134 DL.
A lower ratio gives more mechanical advantage; rear-wheel rollout determines distance per crank turn.
Selected-size geometry
Geometry overlay
Frames share one scale and a bottom-bracket alignment. Size labels differ by brand; schematic drawing aids are identified below.
Gearing comparison
Lower gears help on climbs. Higher gears suit higher speeds.
RPM
RPM = pedal turns per minute.

How it works
Ratio = front teeth ÷ rear teeth. Hub gears also include the hub’s internal ratio. A 400% range means the highest ratio is four times the lowest.
Speeds are estimates from tire size and pedal cadence. Actual speeds vary.
