Re: Kona Operator

I like the tyres :D , looks like a fun bike, you'll need to report back about Bike Park Wales as well, sounds like a very cool place.

Will do.

With a bit of luck I might be able to borrow my friend's Go Pro to do a run with, so my rustiness will be recorded for the world (well, Retrobike) to see!
 
Picked it up this morning and what a belter it is!

I need to get a 350lb spring for the shock because the 450lb one fitted is a little bit too stiff. I've also got to swap out the medium spring in the Boxxers for a soft. But these are minor issues. I'm well chuffed :D















 
Looks even better now it's actually yours!

350 spring and soft rockshox spring? Wow! You must be a right featherweight!

Yep. 150lb with gear :)

I used the Mojo, Fox and TFTuned spring calculators for the rear shock and got an average of 310lb for 28% sag. So I've actually ordered a 300lb spring which, with a little bit of preload, should give me 30% sag. Perfect!
