Wading through my extensive records of all things Kona, I probably peaked a bit too early yesterday with the gorgeous Titanium Kona Una
However, if I don't share these images on here, there seems little point in saving them on my computer......
Rightyho, first up is a 1998.5 Kona Nunu in Stars 'n' Bars livery. For what is essentially a mid range frame, this does seem a little extravagant:

Back to frames that did not appear in a Catalogue any particular year, and the Kilauea in particular, here is a 2000 version that is Kona Double Butted CroMo tubing with Ritchey Hooded Dropouts and has the Glow In The Dark Decals. I must say that its construction is perilously close to the the Kyber rental bike above:

There are allegedly a couple more Rental bikes from Whistler named after the trails there. The "Fissile" which is a local mountain peak:

.....and the "Joyride" which is a trail in the bike park:

Talking of trails... I'm not sure if this incorrectly spelt Ho' Chi' Min is legitimate, but it appears to be very similar to the 1998 Caldera with Kona CroMo Double Butted tubing and New Drop Investment Cast Dropouts:
