I should be in N Wales either this coming week or the week after, then driving back to S Wales and in Bristol early May , happy to help out with transportation if it widens the potential buyers?

Can I just add ... the 1993 lavadome and Cindercone share the same frame and, on reviewing the 1993 brochure, the frame is the same as the 1992 Kilauea, ie a mighty fine riding steel frame!

Many thanks for the offer, If it was an 18" frame I would be keeping it.

Everything work OK?
Might take it as a viable canal cruiser until my trek 930 build is sorted...
Just thinking out loud..
Frame size spot on for me.. velocity stem and project 2 will remind me of my explosif.. well maybe 20 percent if I only look at it from front fork onwards..
Does anyone know what the steel was? Columbus max, Reynolds or tange?? Any noticeable difference in real world.. or do they all rust to shit with a bit if water in the top tube?

You know with this lavadome, where does it sit in the hierarchy of kona steel framed bikes? Anyone?

Check out the brochure - Google 1993 Kona catalogue - all you need to know..

Basically it’s mid range, great frame, low end groupset so you can upgrade (thumbies & levers are really good too)
