Tried a 26.8 seat post in the 92 lava dome and it went in as far as the slot lasts. could somebody confirm a 26.6mm is the right size before I order one. Also where would i find one of these collar cable stays that fit around the top of the down tube to allow centre pull brakes as the frame has no stays as standard? Thanks Duncan
Lavadome seat post size
- Thread starter Froggy
- Start date
I know my 1990 konas take 26.6mm seatposts not sure if they changed the diameter in 91/92 try giving the inside of the seat tube a good clean first it might just be loads of grime stopping it. Put a wanted ad on here for the collar coz they can be tricky to find the original ones. What colours the lavadome?
92 Lava dome resto
Thanks Spanky, I can crack on with seat post order now. She was black before resto and I have a couple of litres of toyota solid black 2K left over so no brainer, black she is with clear coat on the tubes bearing decals only. Seem to be able to get an excellent finish straight out of the gun on bike resprays, compared to the handfull of car resprays I have carried out, which more often than not needed arduous flatting and polishing is an absolute result.
. Hoping to set up a spray booth with extraction and heating. Watch out Argos??? appologies for bad light on pics.
