That's so kind of you to say! Thank you... That would just be the icing on the cake for meThat's gonna be some build when it's all done, you'll definately need to enter it into a B.O.T.M
Ive got a pic of me at the age of 17 on my beloved 91 lava dome, some where, ill have to dig it out, tragically we have a similar hair do lol, didnt you just love the early 90'sThis time 30 years ago I was still drooling over the new "93" Kona catalogue which at the time I picked up from my local bike shop. Those days you had no access to online images,it was just the catalogue to look at!
At that time I was cruzing around on my "1990" MuddyFox Pathfinder and was always at my Sunday club rides even though the bike weighed a ton,I still made it.
The summer of "92" I worked every day I possibly could getting paid about £15 a day! Christmas came and all I wanted from my family & friends was Money towards my dream bike....ooooh that colour scheme...silver to a stunning dark green fade. Every Sunday it was in the shop... The bike,the race kits,caps, T shirts
A few months later I had the MONEY, Thanks to the sale of my well oversized (You'll grow into it son) Pathfinder.
Exactly 30 years on I have found one in near pristine condition,I'm hoping to revive the decals or use correct match on the ones that are damaged.
Now it's time to build a very nostalgic bike,one that is true to me and what components I had on it up to the day it got stolen from beside my parents house back in "99"
I'll be adding some(not all) lovely NOS components I have bought already....all period correct View attachment 727038View attachment 727039
