I'm thinking of getting a new bike, specifically a Kona Blast (newer one, not sure of the year exactly) with Marzocchi bomber forks, not any of the others with apparently worse forks (based on reviews I've seen).

Anyone know if this is an OK bike for someone not really doing racing/loads of offroad stuff? It's £360 at a local shop, which seems an OK price.

Anyone got any first hand experience?

as for experience, i liked my marzocchi shocks... don't remember which one i had though... it's been so long since i've ridden my bike

Lonyo: looks like a perfectly good bike for what you're after. Nice aluminum frame, good fork, mostly Deore components (nice solid stuff). I'd go for it.
