Hi, I don't suppose you know of a supplier of the suspension bushes that have the slight wear do you?
Im interested in the bike but after a quick google ive drawn a blank.

Kona never made a steel sus bike did they?

I don’t know but this one is a steel rear triangle as far as I know. Nice round tube set on the main frame.

Are they anything more special than oilite bushes ? You can get them in a massive range of sizes.

Thanks for your interest, I had a look online myself and couldn't find anything that suited, there is a retro Marzocchi page on Facebook where people make reproduction parts & stickers, there might be something on there https://www.facebook.com/groups/retromarzocchimtb. The movement is very slight and completely unnoticeable when riding, only when you lift the bike.

I don’t suppose you’d consider selling just the frame set?
