2003 Kona Stinky Nine....back from the dead!!!

[slope]

I've owned over 25 Kona's and haven't found one I didn't like!

Joe? Is that you?

It's got about a foot clearance at the front and about 1/4" at the back!!

I see!

Is the rear wheel on the wrong way round? Brake rotor on wrong side?

Where does the mech / caliper go?

Tyre looks awfully tight to the top of the rear triangle

Yeah wheel is wrong way round. Mock up i guess.

The hanger is there i think, looks to be about 2/3rds down the rotor!!

As I'm sure you can see, the wheel is in the far forward position in the sliding dropouts. Once the bike is done I will optimize the position or perhaps leave it where it is.

Holy cr@p, just noticed what everyone was saying...I have the back wheel on wrong. Never done that before.
Please excuse the same situation in these pics.
Too tired to fix it now, tomorrow it shall be right!!

Sooo....she is getting heavier. Cranks, rr der. and new handlebars!

I cant quite remember but didnt the stabs or stinkys have the DOPE system?

May be worth looking into if so.
