kona lavadome

[Kitmech]

ok so 19 years ago i got a kona lavadome for my birthday, I rode, raced and basically went every where on it. It's since been about 8 different colours and has had various different mounts for cables brazed on over the years and then was left to rot in the garage for 10 years as my bike collection increased. i then (about a year ago) started rebuilding it with all the kit i wanted but couldn't afford all those years ago. There's still a few bits to do like the kona future shock forks sitting in the garage waiting for paint but i thought i'd post it on here any way hope you all like it!!!!!!!!!

by the way excuse the explosif decals they were all i could get 10 months ago before i found out about gil

I'm refurbing one the same at the moment, but the spec wont be anywhere near as good as yours! Gotta love that wheel!

Glad you like the spec took ages to find all the bits I wanted.
I'm toying with the idea of red ano cook bros cranks but not wether to leave the good old drilled ones on
