Here’s my Kona Cruiser, it is currently in pieces, have a Sunday stem, Surly Sunrise bars and a Hope Eternity seatpost ready to fit, just need a new freewheel for my Paul wheelset and a new ISIS bottom bracket so I can use my old Race Face cranks and then it will be ready to rock

Cheers
Stu

Not mine, found on "The rusty stuff appreciation society" on Facebook.

Oh snap, those curved chain stays looks like a CWC (Cleveland Welding Company) made frame. They are some of my favorite antique bikes of all. Gotta say that I disapprove of the ram's horn bars on there though

That's lovely - even down to the way the fender mounts mirror the frame curves
The seat tube and the head tube are the only straight bits on it.
I quite like the bars - each to their own

This one is not finished yet, I have built a new Velospeed Coaster brake single speed rear wheel (Mavic 221s). I'll probably get a geared hub eventually. Also Stem is the only one in my parts bin that had fit for 1inch steerer and clamp it works, but I want something black...

Where I'm at now. Building from mostly spare parts.
Diamondback Sorrento, MX bars, Ukai HF rims converted to single speed.

Here's one I think I had on the previous thread.

It's an Orange O2 - quite a light frame - and some quality kit from Tune, Pace, Stans, Ritchey etc. I love the way it rides - head up as opposed to down - just perfect for a recovery ride

1983 ... In the 80s they have invented and tested near every thing: Dropper post, forks, rear suspensions, auto guears, one chain ring ...




Hi Yeti, this curve was 2 years earlier than you (1983)
