kona hei hei 16" frameset, 1994

Lovely bike!
Doesn't sound like a serious 'for sale' though.

yepp, tell me your problems...

 

[RockiMtn]

yepp sounds of a lot of money. but how many time do you have seen a complete set?

too bad the uk pound lost a lot of value in the past time.

don't get me wrong. you are offering up some SERIOUS Ti hardware, especially considering the forks. hence the wack of money required!

Maybe it's just me then, but the 'short time until I change my mind' on about the third change of mind, on what he's prepared to offer for sale.

It is a nice bike, hope you find a buyer - I'd sure like to own it, but not sure £ much.

i think he's offering up more than he wants to to sell the frame (*ahem* fork *ahem*), hence his "until he changes his mind". i don't see his offer NOT being serious until that happens. just shows that someone has to act quick before he does "change his mind"

Something like that.................................

Too right Ashok - it's taken me over 3 years searching & lots of £££ to get the complete set of Ti Race Light components for my 19" Hei Hei.
(if only I'd discovered RB 4 years ago :roll: )
Think the asking price is bang on.

payment pending...

I still haven't my money for the set... so the frame is for sale again and only the frame. price is eur 800.- exclusive shipping.

I still say it is a size 17.

You say it is 40.5cm from the centre of the bb to the top of top tube - so 43cm to the top of the seat tube? If yes, it is a size 17.

Does your file number for the photo imply that the serial number is B17436? If yes, then it is size 17 and the 436th Hei Hei made.

Kona made size 17s from 1993 onwards. The fact that they don't appear in the 1994 UK catalogue just means that they didn't import size 17s into the UK before 1995. It doesn't mean that your frame isn't a size 17.

A size 17 is designed for riders from 5-3 to 5-9 or 160-175cm.

Thanks for the information. And, how to know the year ?
