    Paint details

    Thanks for the replies. It is the red and silver one but I have no idea what a RAL number is or how to get it. Can anyone help.

    Paint details

    I'm looking to get my '93 Kileuea re-painted and the sprayers have asked for exact details of the colours. Does anyone know where I can find out this info (I think they want some sort of colour number)?

    Less rims, more odds and sods

    Could I see a picture of the '93 Velocity stem. Cheers.

    Work bikes

    Here's my new work bike (the road bike disintegrated). '96 Sunn Vertik, Judy SL's (painted to match the Kileauea they were on) with Eglund cartridges that sat idle in the garage for five years and are as smooth and leak free as the day I bought them. Everything sourced out of bins in the...

    Lovely bike. Nice to see someone else using the MX Comps. I know they're not particularly boutique but I've never felt the reason for anymore performance than they give and they last forever.

    Retrobike Autumn meet - Saturday 4th Nov 10:30 am Cannock

    Coming from Glasgow with all my mates living in the south, overnight accomodation and extra costs tend to come with the terriotory unfortunately but camping and beer always seem to go hand in hand with cycling. Obviously appreciate that family commitments take precedence. I'll be trying...

    I was planning to do a Snowdon run around that time with a few mates (if they turned up on modern bikes would anyone talk to them?)

    Wales around October sounds perfect. Would love to see the bikes from this site in the flesh.

    Gig

    My brother brought me tickets for Queen at Wembley Stadium in '85 when I was 15. Supported by INXS (unheard of at the time and crap), The Alarm (68 Guns, awesome) and Status Quo (we truly rocked all over the world). Few years later, Rage Against The Machine at Reading including my first stage...

    Band's you wish you'd seen

    Gotta be The Doors or John Martyn in the 70's (saw him a few months ago and it was a bit too jazzy for me).

    I know disc adaptors aren't the prettiest of items but I use an A2Z from The Wooly Hat Shop and it's never given me any problems. This is it, http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g52/k ... G_0743.jpg

    FOR SALE 1993 KONA LAVADOME

    If you are breaking (seems a shame but I'm not allowed anymore either), I'll have the stem.

    Kona Kilauea - a good buy?

    They just look so right and ride like a kid running too fast down a steep hill (well it makes sense to me :? ).

    Bike of the month?

    Just wondering but are we voting for the most faithful restoration or the most aesthetic/retro-inclined bike? Only asking because I fell in love with the Breezer.

    Xizang project

    Bear-Chan, that is one beautiful frame. I use Scotchbrite on my Hei hei when she's looking a bit tired. Am I the only one who thinks that a gorgeous frame like that shouldn't be let down by single speeding?

    Favorite holiday destination.....

    Don't know about Ibiza or Florida, it's got to be Chamonix for me everytime.

    My new Kona

    Just thought I would introduce Lily Kona Moran (I have a very understanding wife). Has anyone else named their new treasure after their first one? http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g52/k ... G_0703.jpg P.S. She grabs everything in sight, I wasn't actually feeding her beer (I make sure...

    First Halfords and now this. As an original Hei Hei and '93 Kileaua owner I just don't 'get' them anymore
