Re: Knowing me knowing you - (Kona) A'ha! (1997)
Long time no see type bump. Preparing for Mayhem this year is a good excuse to sort out A'ha. The chain-line / lack of sensible space between the chain and rear triangle needs to be solved so a few set-up config's are likely.
One easy fix is the ride itself. The fleagles look nice but for me, impractical. There're way too wide and it feels like I'm cycling an old shopper. So, back on is a nice X-lite riser from their last incarnation from the mid-late 00's. They suit it look-wise and after a short couple of scoots around the block the ride is improved by about 1000%.
I'd forgotten how much of a tank it is, but also how much fun it is. A right old cruiser that's now a bit more eager to get on the rough stuff. Fingers crossed I can get a lap out of her later this year.
