Kona Pahoehoe 1998. Sizing etc.

[oldave]

Contemplating buying a '98 Pahoehoe - all original but totally stripped so I can't "sit on it".

Seat tube is 17" c to c, 19" c to top - would this have been a 17" or a 19" in Kona terms? Virtual top tube 22".

I know worth is subjective, but would 200 quid as a complete "kit" (and I'd always rather put 'em together myself!) be silly money? Are the Easton Elite frames - this one is in VERY nice condition - well regarded?

A while since I've had a front susser so any comments gratefully received!

Kona measure from center to top of seat tube, so a 19". As far as price, im not that sure on the value of this model, does seem a bit steep to me though, but i do quite like Easton tubing for its lightness

Aluminium Konas don't seem to attract much interest, even top-end stuff like Primos.

Not sure what you mean by kit? Frame, forks, seatpost bars and stem for £200. I would say that's fair with both sides wondering how much money they left on the table.

Thanks both.

"Not sure what you mean by kit?" A complete bike - every bit! I've passed though - on the big side for my taste.
