For Sale Kona haole 1992 57cm

[yannis70]

Gorgeous titanium Kona road bike from 1992.

Frame is in excellent condition, except the original seat clamp has been removed and replaced with an alloy collar. This is not a problem, and can only be seen if you know to look for it. I'll post a photo.

Full Dura Ace 7400 groupset (excluding seat post) works flawlessly. In excellent condition for its age, although the lever hoods are a little worn.

SR Sakae LITAGE alloy forks.

57cm frame.

Royce titanium bottom bracket, worth£££

GB stem, 3T bars.

Flite saddle

I think the skewers are titanium.

Non period parts: new amber wall tyres (25mm Schwalbe Durango), some basic SPD pedals.

I've also replaced the chain rings with Stronglight 38 48 rings and cassette with an 11-28, so my old legs can get it uphill. The original 42 52 Dura Ace rings and cassette are included in the sale.

Beautiful ride, I had explosif hard trails back in the early nineties and fancied reliving the old days. But I'm not riding on the road so this beautiful bike is just hanging in the garage.

Sensible offers around £1000

I'm in Stoke on Trent, pretty central to the UK so happy to drive a reasonable distance. Could post for whatever it costs on Evri

Anyone got any tips how I can grow from needing a 52/54 frame to a 57cm?

650b?

Unfortunately its the distance between my feet and my bum, not the ground.

I'd be tempted too but have the opposite problem in that I'd need a 59cm

Lovely example. Do you happen to have a pic of the SN? Is it on the register already?
