As is the retrobike way, and although i have only just finished this into my perfect commuter bike, the urge to tinker with something else is too strong, so I'm here to offer my Kona for preferable swap for something along the following..cash sale would be considered, aound the £350 mark?
90/91/92 vintage, large 19"/20" frame size please,
Marin Pine Mountain / Eldridge Grade / Team..zolatone models
Alpinestars Al-Mega or Cro-Mega
Gt Avalanche / Karakoram
Orange - Orange and white fade only!
Raleigh Dyna Tech (funky paint versions)
may consider others...WHY?
Right, back to the Kona...
It is in perfect condition, the frame and forks were professionally stripped and powdercoated in a satin finish, with fresh decals from Gil, all the other parts have been stripped, cleaned, bearings replaced and greased. So all is in top condition. If you want this back to off road spec, it would just need some different tyres and a granny ring fitted, spec and pics below..
