Was thinking about withdrawing mine from the section as next to the hei hei's on here she looks a bit butt ugly and un-kona ish :cry:

while there are sickos like me around, all konas are welcome

much as i love the hei heis, they just remind me a bit of pampered rich girls who're always getting manicured.

Don't be too hasty. You have the advantage of standing out in the crowd.

Don't be a donut Speedplay, I'll post a scan of a cool Chute on front page of an old mbuk which should re-inspire you....

You'll have to wait til the morning tho'

Ok here we go with the 0 vote option, my beat up 93 Explosif.... its a work in progress but i thought i may aswell put it up as hell will be a frosty place before another kona special BOTM pops up.

19" 93 Explosif frame
93 Kona Joe Murray Z-link forks offering a whopping 1.25" of bounce.
Original diacompe 987 cantis on ss7 levers
impact headset (cheers mr zero!)
sugino mighty XP chainset
onza ho pedals
onza porcipaws
XT thumbies
XT front hub
Mavic 217 rims
Flite Ti
worn syncros seat post
Everything else is M900 XTR

Im basicly waiting/deciding on how best to touch up, respray, re decal (i have the decals) and generally polish it all up. The Zlinks are to be honest likely to be sold on at some point and the bike returned to its P2's.

woohoo my first BOTM entry ...bring on the nil points!

If I can get some nice shots of the King Kahuna or the 94 Cindercone I'll add them to the competiton tomorrow...

Nice Explosif, JeRkY. I'm liking it, but frankly think the Z-Links would look better on my Kilauea.
