It’s getting HOT in here ….

Never seen a '96 rasta flames frame, but @al-onestare 's Hot is the only one I've seen that mixes flames and the 96 decals. And boy does it look good!

Ah, memories. Such a great bike I'm super blessed to have.

Final post for today. If I had a blank canvas 1997 Hot to paint, today, I'd go with something I've never seen in the flesh but must have existed.

In the edition of BIKE magazine I've often referenced for the Misser Replica build, is a competition to win a Kona "dual-slalom" frame the Misser brothers "raced". There is an illustration of the frame livery.

Would you like to see it for your consideration?

There are two options

Paint by Mercian / decals by Gil

Or

Airbrushed with no decals.


I’m currently swaying towards a 97 style font and airbrush. But I’m not sure if that’s wise.

Paint by Mercian / decals by Gil (IMHO)

Does anyone do a quality water slide alternative to the thick vinyl decals?

Not that I’ve found.

What about H Lloyd? I've not used them but I recall they worked with someone on here for some M-Trax decals and they do water slide.
