Have I got a very rare pair of chromed Kona P2 forks?
They are the same shape, weight and have 'spinner' dropouts. They're shiny silver, chrome plated
I've never seen another pair.
Does anyone know about them?

I've got a pair I bought off eBay a few years back. Newer rather than older I think. No idea what they came on...

Mine came off eBay too, probably about 2007.

I always find parting with stuff difficult before it's a full bike. This is an issue I've been struggling with for several years, and a lot of time and money has been lost to eBay.
The forks are on an old SS chrome project, tucked away in my dads garage. As I remember it's a Sunn X circuit, needing cranks. (I've got a 'watch' on some suginos).
I'll be up there at Easter and re-evaluate my 'stable'.
