Ouroboros

An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will

The Ouroboros is an all-new platform from the unbound minds at Kona. We bring you three builds– each meant for its own incredibly rowdy ride to the ends of the earth and back. Pack it expertly for the long haul, nimbly explore the edges of singletrack, or complete multiple days of the most wonderfully weird and delightfully chaotic of events. While other gravel bikes may technically tolerate mountain bike components, the Ouroboros is intentionally designed around the rowdy stuff – like 180mm rotors, 2.1 tire clearance, and front suspension, giving you a ride feel that is otherworldly and almost mistakable for a modern trail bike.

The Ouroboros Carbon Deluxe

An absolutely stunning gravel bike for those who seek a more traditional look and feel. This creation prioritizes lightweight features and adheres to the sacred and long-established characteristics of a drop bar bike. We’ve thoughtfully spec’d gear steps that are closer together to help you maintain your ideal cadence. With that sweet spot so easy to find, you won’t lose your rhythm – no matter your load or speed.
