1996 Kona Hahanna tubing?

[sb88]

Hey,

I've got my eye on a decent condition 96 Hahanna. Pros - rack mounts and 90s Konas seem to have taller headtubes for a given size, compared to some brands.

But does anyone know what the tubing is? It's listed as 'Kona cromoly' in the 96 catalogue, which is fine by me (better models were butted) and it says 'Racelight' on the frame. I'm aware that later models cheaped out on tubing as they started to try to include a sus fork etc at the same price point. I've seen one post suggesting Hahannas used a hi-ten rear triangle, which I'd like to avoid at the given price...

Any info much appreciated, ta!

Probably not a bad as trek who put on a cromoly seat tube only so they could put on a cromoly sticker on the frame!
There are more in the know but I thought the hahanna was plain gauge cromoly throughout.

Re:

Yes it’s “Kona Cromoly”, plain gauge (not butted). Catalogue says “All cromoly frame, fork and stem. No hi-tensile tubes hidden anywhere”.
