The Bike is now complete 8) , Its been a bit of a nightmare as we have been stuck by this Flu and throwing up bug so its been tricky to get this done secretly with the kids and bread knife having this for nearly a week now.

I have robbed her current bike (specialized Hardrock 99 from 9 christmas's ago) so I hope I dont get caught, It has no Saddle, chain pedals or Grips :oops:

I took it for a quick blast and it felt just as a small kona should, very nimble and responsive,

It even feels if its lost a few pounds must be the XTR diet :lol:

I will have to post a picture at Christmas now :cry:

SWMBO has just seen this over my shoulder and she wants me to build her GT in a similar colour, is that standard Kona?

Top build that matey!
