Kona Rove DL 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 DL — 48. Front triangle ≈ 1193 cm² · effective top tube 515mm · seat tube 480mm — Kona Rove DL in size 48, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1193 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove DL — 50. Front triangle ≈ 1279 cm² · effective top tube 531mm · seat tube 500mm — Kona Rove DL in size 50, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1279 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove DL — 52. Front triangle ≈ 1366 cm² · effective top tube 546mm · seat tube 520mm — Kona Rove DL in size 52, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1366 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove DL — 54. Front triangle ≈ 1455 cm² · effective top tube 562mm · seat tube 540mm — Kona Rove DL in size 54, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1455 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove DL — 56. Front triangle ≈ 1547 cm² · effective top tube 578mm · seat tube 560mm — Kona Rove DL in size 56, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1547 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Kona Rove DL — 58. Front triangle ≈ 1652 cm² · effective top tube 598mm · seat tube 580mm — Kona Rove DL in size 58, drawn to scale from Kona's published geometry. The shaded area is the front triangle — roughly 1652 cm² of space for a frame bag. Wheels are indicative; frame lines are accurate.

Geometry

All figures in millimetres except angles. Effective top tube and seat tube are the two that decide frame bag fit.

Bottom bracket height

Roughly 301–305mm off the ground. Konadoesn't publish this directly — we derive it from their BB drop and a typical 75cm tyre diameter, so treat it as indicative rather than exact. It changes with the tyre you fit. Lower means more stable and more pedal strikes; higher means the opposite.
