Another Kona Thread

[facmarques]

Hi, I have 1993 Cinder Cone size 17 I had a thread here before a long time ago but don't seem to be able to find it.
I am 1.90 m so 17 it to small for me. Now I want to do a retromod with a steel Kona.
I will keep the cinder cone with 1990's equipment.

I currently have two options a 1991 Explosif or a 1998 Kilauea. Both are size 19 I would prefer 20 but cannot seem to find one.
What is the better frame?
I tend to navigate to the Explosif but I am not sure.

Guessing you had a different user name before?

I'd go with the Explosif, if for no other reason than it can stay in this forum and not the -->1998 one!

Yeah, I found it in the meantime

the 1998 frame is by far the better one,
the 1991 is by for a more retro retro one.
