The Rove makes quick work of the commute, coffee-run, gravel trail, or the after-work fitness lap on your local hill. It's spec'd to suit your needs, is easy on the eyes and available alloy or steel. A timeless design that will stand up to the most punishing conditions, from winter commuting to multi-day tours.
The Rove series from Kona has become synonymous with adventure. Four models offer 1x and 2x drivetrains, steel and aluminum options, and numerous price points. With so many variations, there’s a perfect Rove for you no matter what you’re after.
Perhaps you’re gravel-curious, but not quite sure of how often you’ll really want to push your limits off the paved road. That, my friend, is what the Kona Rove 650 is here for. It’s the road biker’s gravel/touring/do-it-all steed. It welcomes bigger tire clearance and more comfortable geometry. It provides everything you need for a fast, comfortable ride and nothing you don’t. It's affordable, high quality and truely versatile.
It’s the perfect bike for commuting, partaking in weekend warrior adventures, gravel rides, cycle trails or diving deeper into longer tours.”
- Albert Einstein (probably)
A bike that works so well for so many riders, in so many different situations, deserves multiple build options. With classic lines and aesthetics across all 4 models, the Rove comes with either an aluminium (AL) or steel (CRMO) frame. As the price increases, so to does the component spec, from Shimano Claris 2x8-speed on the Rove AL to Shimano GRX 2x11-speed on the Rove LTD.
To help make sense of the different models, we've highlighted the key feature differences below.
The do-it-all bike at a price that won't break the bank. Made from 6061 Aluminium, a tough, durable, light alloy. The Rove AL makes for a great commuter or an entry to longer tours or gravel missions.
