Somebody got that for a good price as it looked like it just needed new elastomers in the pace forks and it would be good to go. Just too much for me as it would have a last ditch (and probably failed) attempt to get my kids into cycling. That i would then have had to move on.

I always think this is a great section...... then something I would like to get at a good price gets spotted and added here almost ensuring it goes over my budget 🤣

Ahh, making it better and stronger no doubt 👍

Gotta to love this era of Konas 👌

I am interested in the asymmetric elements of the frame as i have never seen these before. What are the benefits? Dors it align the drive train better? Rich.

Were these designed with asymmetrical seat stays? In picture 9 the non-drive side looks much "bendier" than the drive side??? Anyone tlse think so? I wonder why "Air" sprayed it (post accident damage?)or did they do work for Swallow?

Its sold already. Must have had a decent buy it now offer.

I have just proved my belief that patience is a retro bikers greatest tool is true........earlier in the day i had struggled to get the crank remover tool threaded into the drive side crank. I could see and feel threads but wondered if they were slightly damaged? Anyway, I was working on the...

You may have seen my thread about wanting to try out a proflex and then finding a 454 as project. Well here it is. I forgot to take many photos before I started the strip down this weekend 🤦 In fact this is the only one i have 😁 There are some videos of it on Youtube if you search on the...

I got it home. Now sleep time.

Now at Waterloo after Google maps took me round the houses lol

It has made it to me in North London. Now to get it back to Hampshire!

Well, i am hoping i have found a project bike to let me try a pro-flex for myself. The owner and i have hatched a plan today that should get it from Essex to Hampshire with extensive use if an "integrated" transport system that abhors any full size/non-folding bikes. Plenty of scope for Mr cock...

Are you planning on using panniers? If so keep the one with the longest chain stays so your heels don't clip the panniers as you pedal.

Is it designed to scrape mud off the chain rings in really sloppy conditions?

Build it up and keep which one suits you better.......or keep both 😁

Can't see it without being a member of the faceache group it is in. No doubt has sold now anyway.

Thanks for the input all. I think I will have to keep an eye out for one locally at a decent price.

I have a full sus retro ride scratch i would like to itch. I have always hankered after a proflex so thought I would start my search there. But what are they like to ride? My thing is cross country exploring rather than anything gnarly. Would a proflex suit me? Anything else I should be...
