    Kona Humuhumu Nukunuku A Pua deluxe 2005

    Hi folks. Thought I would share my Humu build. It's an ongoing process. It's been a fun trail bike for sure after getting rid of the heavy cruiser parts. Some may say "lipstick on a pig" but I don't care. XTR brakes/SRAM drivetrain, 27.5 carbon wheels and other modern gear may not be to everyone...

    Kona PhD - frame colour ?

    Need some help here. This Kona PhD which I believe is from 2010 needs a headset. Haven't worked with this standard for ages but it looks like Integrated - aka the bearings that is resting on the frame without cups. The width is about 41.x mm. https://99spokes.com/en-EU/bikes/kona/2010/ph.d...

    Kona PhD - frame colour ?

    I went through the different label design and it's a 2008. The sticker on the downtube is unique for this year. Not a bad bike back in the day with 105/ultegra components. The color was white only ... with some shiny details. I'll try and clean the frame up and see what's hiding beneath the...

    I’ll do that. Rode a F600 back in day and that had plenty of slope.

    Need help - was there ever made an steel ATB/MTB frame in my desired geometry?

    Singular is nice but I was hoping to find something more retro/vintage. But I’ll have a look at the Singular back catalog. The Gryphon has the frame geometry I’m searching for

    Correct thread pattern for canti post on GT Xizang 199-X

    Hello. I think this is the right place to ask: I purchased a GT Xizang Ti last week without the canti post installed. To my big surprise I realized today that the canti post I had lying around doesn't fit. And they don't fit the Surly fork as well I got for this frame :?: The...
