mate, you start one M:i after the other - first the Stars n Bars (OK sorted by 2
) then the buttersotch / natural SNIFF tyre and now a DB or TP Kona P2 from 97
I was also looking for one for my girls 97 Lava Dome, but failed so far. In the end I used a P2 from 96 with threaded steerer.
In 97 most of Kona range had been equipped with sus forks. The bikes with P2's from stock had been modified later one with sus forks and the P2 thrown away, maybe.
That could been the reason why more threaded steerer P2 are on the marked then A-head ones.
btw. it should fit the 97 Hot, or am I wrong ?
