One of my old ones there Chris. They didn't all have that decal though

Aye that's where i nicked the photo from loved that Explosif wish it had of been a 19 inch frame because i would've bugged the life out of you to sell me it

Learn something new everyday , always thought they came with that decal.

For me that would be the one to have, it makes it extra special in my eyes.

If only it was in the UK I don't know how many times when Googling Kona Explosif that bike pops up and thought i'd love that because it's one of the custom paint ones.
Not really fussed about the parts all i'd want is the frame and forks so you could do your own custom build.

As the new owner, I feel its only fair to mention I'm an expat Brit
