Cheap yes but, actually it is hard to obtain old classics here in Norway. People dont bother to sell them, they just trash them. Actually at the last birkebeiner cross country race over 250 bikes where left back! Picture is form the local paper. Any way Birken is a great race if you are...

Might take it out in the woods to its natural environment. Had some fun moments on it both on single tracks and some speedy rides on gravel, back in the days. But though the main use for it now as a my bike to work when the sun i shining, thats why I have the hookworms on it...

As I am still looking for a yearly Kona Hei Hei, I some times find some other interesting bikes. To day I came over a Kona Lava Dome, since I got the bike real cheap (£50) I thought that I might could use the wheels, grab the P2 fork and the race light parts. Then get rid off the rest of the...
