My Kona 1990 cindercone project

Nick B.C.

Retro Newbie
My faithful old Kona splattercone has done more miles than i can imagine but sadly been hanging in the garage for too long now (about 6 years) due to a shredded bb shell. Time to sor that out so it's going to get rebuilt as a single speeder!!! I'll keep you posted...

Been having the sane thoughts to do one just need to find a mega cheap one so I can warrant slinging so money at the other bits to get it how I want
 
BB shell Fettled thanks to my mate Ricky Feather!

The BB shell now has a BB in it thanks to a chase of the threads by Ricky of Feather cycles.

The original UM-20 rims and Suntour hubs are in place, Velocity stem on!!

Bike shaped again!!! more photos soon, camera problems!!
 
At last!

Don't worry the chain's on the other side of the tensioner now!!!
