The Kona Factory team is taking a new approach for 2008. Its riders will spread out across the globe and participate in many events outside the standard racing scene. The team's schedule will include more endurance events, as well as plenty of festival-oriented races like the Kona 24-hours in Old Pueblo and the Singlespeed World Championships.
