Kona Rove frame geometry, drawn to scale

Every tube angle and length below is from the published chart, not an illustration. The front triangle area is the number that decides which frame bags fit — and it changes a lot across sizes.

Kona Rove — 48. Front triangle ≈ 1214 cm² · effective top tube 524mm · seat tube 480mm — Kona Rove in size 48, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1214 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove — 50. Front triangle ≈ 1298 cm² · effective top tube 539mm · seat tube 500mm — Kona Rove in size 50, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1298 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove — 52. Front triangle ≈ 1385 cm² · effective top tube 554mm · seat tube 520mm — Kona Rove in size 52, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1385 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove — 54. Front triangle ≈ 1477 cm² · effective top tube 570mm · seat tube 540mm — Kona Rove in size 54, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1477 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove — 56. Front triangle ≈ 1570 cm² · effective top tube 586mm · seat tube 560mm — Kona Rove in size 56, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1570 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove — 58. Front triangle ≈ 1668 cm² · effective top tube 603mm · seat tube 580mm — Kona Rove in size 58, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1668 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

How it rides loaded

435mm chainstays and 70-74mm BB drop are stable for light gravel loads; missing verified mount data prevents a stronger load-carrying note.

Drawn from the published geometry and mount spec above, not from reputation.

What it can carry

Mount provision and clearance, as Kona publishes it.
