When I was getting the bike together I found the original MBUK review which I posted out last week to anyone interested: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/kona-kilauea-from-mbuk-march-95.471918/

Many thanks for the feedback. As it happens I’ve a road bike up on eBay at the mo which I’ve had to drop the price on as it isn’t selling. This Kona however is a bit more desirable so not sure I want to risk going down this route and getting little for it. Not sure really…

I am in the south east, sorry to say!

Owned from new, ridden from '95 to '99, carefully stored away and used just a handful of times since is my 16" pearl white Kona Kilauea. Barring a few upgrades the bike has mostly original parts, only needs new cables to ride again (retro Attack Grip Shift included but not pictured), and is in...

Funny just spotted your post after putting this out today from MBUK three years later! https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/kona-kilauea-from-mbuk-march-95.471918/ At the time I was led to believe the Kilauea frame was the Explosif's from the previous year?

Cut Out and Kept! In 95' I bought this bike on the strength of this very MBUK review. I kept this little piece of magazine print history which is still a joy to read... ...Oh, and I kept the bike, which I recon would still be a joy to ride! I lovingly hung up my 16" pearl white Kilauea in...

PRICE DROP: Now on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/305218753690

Okay, you got me. A road bike from 2004 isn’t exactly retro, nor, being a Schwinn of its time, particularly desirable to many. But before I reluctantly advertise this great ride on eBay, or worse break down into parts, I’d like to share this quality smooth weld metallic red frame and bikes...

Hello Everyone, This is my 1999 Marin Rift Zone 15.5 owned from new, ridden (during 'drier' seasons only here on the South Downs) for 5-6 years before it was stripped down and stowed to save space. As you can see from the pics the bike really is in VGC aside from some clearcoat hairline marks...

Thanks Paul, will do. Sweet Lava Dome! I’ve got a 95 Kilauea from new, should probably sell too to make space but think I’m too emotionally attached! Cheers

I have a 1999 Marin Rift Zone owned from new which was ridden for around 5-6 years (Spring, Summer mostly here on the South Downs) before stripping it down and stowing to save space. The bike really is in VGC aside from some clearcoat hairline marks to the alu frame which appeared when the bike...

Re: Many thanks for looking into this and I'm in agreement drystonepaul! I've passed on the news to my neighbour who, unlike myself, isn't a biker but is keen to sell this old steed so any further advice on how to go about this via retrobike would be appreciated? Loving the poster too which...

Some detail shots now taken, which may help?
