    94 Kona HOT 18"

    this is interesting- I guess just mask off the decals, add splatter, then re-clear?

    94 Kona HOT 18"

    There's been a few updates to the Hot, not that I have pictures of. That's not the purpose of this post. I've had this nagging urge to re-paint this Hot, but I'm on the fence of whether I should or not, so I need some help. My 94 Hot was ordered the same colour as the 94 Hahanna. I love the...

    Which BB for Profile Racing cranks?

    I believe either the BSA or Euro BB would work- I'd contact Profile Racing and ask them what you'd need. They're helpful, I've contacted them before. Those look the same crank as a BMX with a double/triple spider on it. Reach out to them, I'm sure they'll get you set.

    Setting up front and rear mech’s

    I find it helpful to set your limit screws before cables and chain as close as you can get. Then run your cables and get the slack out. Chain on last and just dial it in.

    Does anyone recognize this Dean?

    What I mean by rich, is someone young enough to want to work at it, but wouldn’t draw a wage.

    Does anyone recognize this Dean?

    Most bike Coops or charities either run as (or should be running as) a not for profit organization, where auctioning off/ selling anything with decent value to keep the lights on, and paying non volunteer staff. There are a few chrities around here too that also collect and ship bikes to...

    Does anyone recognize this Dean?

    My eventual goal is to open a bike Coop here, so everyone that wants a free bike can have one that's safe. I think that would solve a lot of the problems everyone has around here, including the problem of me finding these amazing bikes and ethically getting them into the hands of those who'd...

    Does anyone recognize this Dean?

    I honestly thought about that too, but didn't feel right holding the bike for ransom. We have a massive homeless population that rely on bikes for transportation, and most don't have cell phones to contact anyway. It's amazing seeing some of the bikes they're rolling around on. I saw one dude...

    Does anyone recognize this Dean?

    This was sitting outside on a -25 degree day, unlocked just hanging out. I left a note to contact me (I don't think I'll get a call), but now I'm curious because I don't see any others, google image doesn't seem to be helping. Mish-Mash of M900, M950 XTR, M737 XT make me think it's a 95-96...

    Wanted DeKerf Tuning Fork - top dollar ready

    I think it’s also a matter of him working on what excites him. I know a few guys that have approached him for some pretty neat custom stuff, he seems to get to that stuff pretty quickly.

    Steel 1992 Rocky Mountain Vertex

    I believe the Expert was a 91 non catalogued model, but I not super confident on that.

    Steel 1992 Rocky Mountain Vertex

    Regarding the Glacier. Based on my research and a few posts from former employees on FB They’re all 91 built Blizzards that came to the factory without the chain stay divots specifically drive side (my Glacier has a Jan 91 build date) and this is why they’re all spec’d with the same parts as a...

    Kona Hot Serial Number List - update 04/04/25

    I believe they did for the most part, I think the jury is still out whether all his builds are sequential, meaning he stamped as he made them regardless of the brand they were being delivered to.. ie a Brave Warrior might be TeT 609, a Yakota TeT 610, and a Kona TeT 611 as an example. I’m not...

    Kona Hot Serial Number List - update 04/04/25

    Ok to redeem myself, I think I've unearthed TeT 725-19"- triangle cutout, fluted down tube, Colour: indescribable - it's gussied up as a Rock Lobster for some reason, and missing all other stickers so I'm not sure if it's been repainted too. It's not mine, and these aren't my pictures, maybe...

    Kona Hot Serial Number List - update 04/04/25

    Omg, totally derailing the HOT thread, but this is gorgeous. I love the paint scheme. is that a fade on the down tube, hard break top tube, then raw Ti seat and chain stays? This needs it's own thread.
