95 lavadome

Well after about 3 months in the mix, it's now built.
Sorry about the slicks, puttin the 'nobblys' on when it stopps raining.
Came out quite light too, at about 23lbs.
Can't beat the old Konas.

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

Very nice. Looks like an Impact headset too.

If Symetry is where you work, must score some good points as a commuter!

:shock: Damn it! That's pretty much how my Kilauea's gonna be.

Still I guess I know how it's gonna look now

Great mind's think alike

specs n info

I found this bike at the side of the road, pretty beat up.
No wheels, dents and covered in rust.
