Re: Tiny 97 Kona Kilauea
Pip 14" and 3.5" are the measurements you're after.
It's original paint O-E-J but I will study some catalogues later. Maybe different drop outs are needed because of the angle of the seatstays?
Hamster- thanks for spa cycles tip- pm me if you've got some to sell ;-)
Thanks all for compliments! It's a cool bike for sure, might get my 8 yo out cycling a bit more!

Re:
Thank you very much for the measurements.
Hope this helps; here is my 1993 Kilauea, which has the same Dropouts and Cable Stops as your tiny one. Mmm, curiouser and curiouser :?

Re: Tiny 97 Kona Kilauea
You're very kind :xmas-wink: .
Perhaps the serial number of your little one would reveal something?

Re:
Okay, I thought it may do.
The 1993 Kilauea was built in the Fairly Factory and has a prefix of F3 or F2.
The 1997 Kilauea was I believe built in the Hodaka Factory (if it's the same as the Explosif for that year), and will have a prefix of H7 or H6
If you feel inclined to remove the cable guide at some point...... well I think some of us may be interested to know.

Re: Tiny 97 Kona Kilauea
Where's Anthony when you need him?
CTK's bike has a squashed (not flare-butted) seat tube bottom end and a slim, straight (not tapered) top tube, so it's not Columbus Cyber or Tange Prestige Concept.
I reckon it's either a '92 Kilauea or maybe a '93 Cinder Cone!
