....and my next potential SS bike the Kona Honzo(game changing bike though due to its progressive geo).

BW -- I just checked out the Honzo....interestin g bike.  I like the short chainstay length -- very uncommon for a 29er.  Not sure I would like the slack head tube, though.  Would have to test ride to see how it felt.  It's taken me some time to get my bike's handling dailed in to an agile and quick steering feel -- shorter stem, flat wide bars, etc. -- and I would not want to give that up.  I don't see it on their site as a single speed, though -- just geared.  The only SS for Kona seem to be the Big Unit (scandium) and Unit (Chromoly).  The geometry of those is pretty conventional, though.
