I’d recommend restoring an explosif or a Kilauea much more worthy than other Kona models

Not sure about being 'more worthy', each to their own though.

Really nice, looks fine without decals.

My kona kilauea, has had a respray in the past with pretty poor decals fitted, currently running a rohloff hub gear and a mix of hope, tune and shimano deore bits. At some point will be getting the frame altered to fit it properly without the torque arm and cable ties holding the cables in place.

Thanks mate, built this for my missus as she wanted a more upright and stable ride...really nice to ride.

That's really nice Beeewu! It's got a simplicity about it that really works. I'd be tempted to try some brown sidewalled tyres on to match if you've got any kicking about.

Parts bin 96 Lava Dome. Though I love a standard bike, I’ve really enjoyed tinkering with this. The frames paint is awful, with big chunks missing, so it’s a great bike to mess about with. Went back to P2s in the end.
