Kona Hei Hei 99p start

I think it's a 94 with the shorter seat tube extension above the top tube.
 
Definitely 18" then but I don't know what the 328 stands for. Possibly number 328 of that year... The short seat tube extension/ shallower top tube angle was only around for the '95-'96 model hei hei. I had one once but it never looked Kona enough for my liking!

Yes, probably a 95 or a 96 like you say. I had a 1996 19" Hei Hei with the short seat tube extension, and while it was alright, it never looked like a Kona.
 
It always struck me as strange that Kona would change the top tube slope of their flagship Hei Hei and not any of the other models, as after all the steep sloping top tube was their trademark. Does anyone know how or why this came about? :?
