Kona Explosif frame 18"

Hi,

I bought a Kona Explosif for some parts. I have no need for the frame. Not sure exactly what it is or when it's from. I think it's been repainted? Anyone shed any light and let me know what I should ask for it?

Many thanks,

Miles

Hmmm... puzzling.

Defo a repaint with incorrect decal placement. The rear canti bridge, serial number placement and even the seat tube extension don't look like they should for a Kona of this age. Also the dropouts were never stamped Shimano either.

My spidey senses say this isn't a Kona.
 
Thanks for the reply! I wonder what it is then. I don't think the seller sold it in bad faith I think he's a member here!
