I just broke down a Kona Lava Dome I've had for a long time , have had a handful of Kona's over the years, and when I popped off the grips I was surprised to see that the bars are fluted. I have to assume that the bike is all original at the stage you see it. Was curious why so many bars were not fluted. I did a search and didn't find anything on the bars. Is this some years specific or maybe an upgrade Kona offered? I'm trying to make room in my bike shop so I can actually work in it and this one is something I don't need hanging around. Will be hitting eBay soon so keep an eye out for it if you like Kona's. Hope it's cool to but that last part in, if not, please remove the post.
