1997 kona HOT 853 rasta -SOLD

Here is my lovely kona hot for sale, its in great nick for age- I was amazed by the paintwork myself when I got it- just the usual chainsuck marks and a bit of chainslap from the previous owner- I have ridden it twice since building and its a great fun bike with a fast and sturdy feel that eats up dusty singletrack like no other bike I've owned.

Does it have Kona drop outs or Ritchey ones? Could l also have some close up pics

Since when did green with yellow flames become Rasta?
Shame it's not a bit bigger! :cry:

Extra pics of dropouts etc

you have pm

Pm replied, hot now sold thankyou- and thankyou for all the interest

you bugger ernie, kidney sale had been agreed and the children had been lined up with a very nice african couple in london to live in their cellar and clean the house.

a very rare and lovely frame you have there, deserving of boutique parts
