Kona Explosif 1997 mtb retro mountain bike Columbus Max steel frame Mavic XT | eBay

Kona Explosif. Mavic rims. Shimano Deore XT rear hub. Shimano Deore XT rear quick release spindle. The top cap of the stem is missing and the bolt is snapped off inside the head tube but this is a pretty simple fix.

Could be a nice project for a local

I saw this... Not far from me. Wasn't sure what size it was... 17? And if seatpost is possibly stuck

 

[LikeClockwork]

Nothing to see here...

Who bought it

 

[LikeClockwork]

Not me, asked about seat post and size and then next thing I know... gone

 

[dandy1]

Yes.. I asked about the size but heard nothing back. Probably should have bought it... Would have been a great project

 

[LikeClockwork]

Yeah, wish I'd just hit BIN and not mucked about now...

I’m the one that took a punt !! I’m hoping by sellers honest description a stuck seatpost would have been mentioned.

I’ll confirm once I get my hands on it if I’ve bought a lemon

Looking forward to a thread. Would have taken the plunge if local.
As for the seatpost, worse case, do a Spindatt and try Gallium.
