Withdrawn 1992 Kona Kilauea 18 inch £195 posted.

[Spanky22b]

Decided to sell my 1992 Kona Kilauea purely because it's a 18 inch frame and not a 19 inch which is always my preferred Kona size.
All structurally sound bar a little ding on the top of the toptube near the rear brake cable boss (i'll take a photo when i get in from work). All the graphics are good paint wise it's got patina from years of use mainly on the toptube which i touched up to tidy things up but apart from that it's not to bad for its age really.
Partswise it's a mixture of Deore DX and Deore LX purely for looks really.
So Deore DX front and rear mechs with MT62 shifters.
Chainset is a Sugino off my old 93 Cindercone, pedals are Deore LX.
Wheels are Deore LX hubs on Wolbers titanium rims, both could do with retruing but rideable as is.
Brakes are Dia Compe ss5's with Deore LX cantilevers so it's nicely specced.

Cheers mate,i'm already getting cold feet selling it and it's only been a few minutes but i really need the 19 inch frame. This fits and i can use it no problem but always feels a little bit to small when i've used one of the others which are 19. Same goes for a 20 inch frame size i'm just a bit fickle when it comes to Konas

Sorry my feet got cold thinking of selling it going to have a think what to do,i may hold onto it until i find a 19 inch frame.

Possibly going to sell the splatted 92 Lavadome instead which i was going to build.
