Forks for Hei Hei

Cheers for the info.
I can't remember the exact time I brought the bike, got the reciept somewhere so could find out but I think it's a '93 frame

Well that is quite a significant thing to establish - see examples below of the different decal styles and dropouts.

The 1993 bike has 'bullet' drop outs too :?
Thought these came in for 1994?

I do have a photo of a bike with Merlin stays and 93 decals, but it has replacement decals, so we can't be sure of the dating. I think possibly the explanation might be that the switch from Merlin to TST may have been during 1993.

This 1992 bike is clearly by Merlin. Note also the canti bridge, which I don't think TST Hei Heis ever had.

So mine must be a 1992 Merlin built Hei Hei

I think it must be Merlin-built, but I'm not sure of its age. I think the red edge to the decals of the bike above points to 92, but yours look like 93 decals (some didn't have the lines running through them). Have you tried sending the frame number to tech@konaworld.com ?

Looking at those I'd say mine was the 93 model

Anyone got any pics of a Hei Hei with rigids other than P2s on?
