At this price the Kona Big Honzo is a great way to get into mountain biking, not only is the spec capable enough for you to get out and enjoy the trails, but the alloy frame is also worth upgrading as you progress your skills. 

It comes with a coil-sprung Suntour XCR34 LOR DS 130mm travel fork and features a wide range 11-51t Shimano Deore 1x groupset. There's hydraulic Tektro HDM275 for confident braking and the bike rolls on tubeless 27.5in WTB ST i35 wheels with fast rolling WTB Ranger 27.5x2.8in tires. The highlight of the spec is the Tranz X dropper post which is rare on budget mountain bikes and allows you to move the saddle out of the way to make descending easier.
