Re:

Hello Konacollector!
I have recently brought a stinky five as frame and forks but am interested in restoring as you did. Can you advise me on whole provided your decals?
Any tips regarding your experience of the restoration will be much appreciated!

Nothing's going to surprise me anymore. It's 2020.

My Tanuki had four in there too!


Finished Stinky, looks a monster.

This is how I built up my Stinky. Mavic 321, Z1 bomber, cheap chainset (all I had) ringle bottle cage, 24/7 stem and bars, hope minis.

i have that front tyre, its very puncture prone, you cant buy them anymore, it looks a good tread though.

saddle needs nose to be point downwards not slanting back.

rear light / grips/ and bottle let the bike down.

 

[Kona-Ian]

Had them tyres on my old Kona and never had a problem.

Saddle, everyone is different, I like mine straight.

Grips, maybe he has hand or wrist problems, I know I do.

Bottle, maybe he wants to have a drink while he's out.

Light, perhaps he doesn't want to get run over if going out when it's dark.
