And here's some close up shots showing the little details:

Well, it certainly has been a while since I updated this bike thread. A lot has changed, and the bike is hardly recognizable! Here's some photos my friend Matt took a few days ago:

As a big Kona nut, thank you for this! I will for sure pass this post along to some friends who have one of these Joe Murray design forks. Do you by chance have plans to make elastomers for the Tange Shock Blades? I have a Shock Blades LT, I guess for Long Travel, and no one makes replacement...

On the topic of bar ends, I still use them on most of my flat bar builds, and on my daily rider Trek 990, I find them essential. Here's my favorite bar ends, I now have three pairs, all different styles. I am looking for more, the collet connection is crazy strong...

Those definitely look like lever extensions to me. Here's some nice photos of the Kona ones I just picked up: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/kona-extension-25-and-dr-dew-brake-lever-extensions.484685/

I just saw this posted to Facebook group Retro Kona Club: This one is interesting, it has gold decals, both in the small "Kona Custom" on the top top tube, and the main downtube decal. I'm going to ask the owner, who is in France, for the serial number.

Hello everyone, I found these recently, and I wanted to share: https://www.cyclerobert.com/en/search/kona/ https://www.cyclerobert.com/en/copy-of-dr-dew-brake-lever-extension.html https://www.cyclerobert.com/en/dr-dew-brake-lever-extension.html I bought a couple pairs of Extension 25s, and...

Here's another one, TET 1111: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/m3NTkiR5FetwXCMr/

Thanks! I'll be checking any Cannondales I find in the next decade very closely for evidence it used to be this bike. I didn't respray the derailleur hanger black, so that's one small detail. I wish I had taken a clear photo of the serial number, if there even was one. Must have been on the non...

This bike has been stolen. The likelihood of it showing up on here for sale is slim to none, but I at least wanted it on record. In case it is recovered, purchased, or found by someone else, this bike was stolen from Busch Stadium Gate 1 in Saint Louis, MO on 7/13/24 1-4PM. I sold the bike to my...

I figured it's time for an update. I've swapped a few parts out in the past, and mentioned that, but not yet shown photos. There's also plenty of new to show off: Here's my every day bike, and I literally ride it every day! You can start to see the patina after a few years of riding. The...

This item is sold.

I have sold this bike: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/sold-1991-cannondale-sm800-beast-of-the-east-for-sale-in-st-louis-mo-usa.478408/

It says Triple Butted in the decal below Project Two, and those definitely look like original decals.

Sounds like a 1995 Kona Koa. Can you post a drive side photo just like this one to compare? Check out the catalog archive here.

I recently bought a pair of 290 levers in gray, which came with these cables. I'm pretty sure this is the specific cable that was designed for this 290T tandem kit!

I sent you a message via Facebook, thanks!

It is still for sale, and I never did find a suitable original stem. That gecko likes to hide.

I am finally selling this bike! Here is the build thread, and below are the most recent photos taken last week, along with the parts list. I'm asking $400 USD local pick up in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. Frame: 18" 1991 Cannondale SM800 "Beast of the East" in Black w/ Hunter Orange splatter Fork...
