For Sale KONA RASTA HOT 1997 18 FRAME MTB VERY RARE HAND BUILT HAND PAINTED

[Ernie]

Here we have a very rare piece of kona history
Rasta colours as per brochure..green is more vibrant in real like compare to the brochure
I had P2 forks and stem sprayed yellow..a well known decal specialist "Gil_M" on retrobike made the stem and fork decals for me
Kona control centre head set
18 frame
yes its been touched up by me in the green..its a forgiving green matt finish, just used airfix paint to match as best I could
There is chain suck as noted in the photo, but then touched in as mentioned
Had this since 27/7/11 purchased this from "its kirby"..I think he changed his screen name
it is absolutely beautiful
I can get more photos if you need them/or if you want me focus on certain areas
any question please ask..reason for selling just "thinning the stable"..please please no silly offers..I will just keep it

Looking for £825 shipped in U.K...

I would travel up to 80 miles by car service station meeting

Overseas..I will only send

International Parcel Delivery - Parcelforce Worldwide...​

I want to give 10% of the final sale to the Hospice{ Malvern area} that looked after Pip in his final days { spoke to Adrian MOD he is aware of my intentions}

If you think that my pricing is way off, please tell me, I am a very reasonable person ..I have ever seen one on here except for the hei hei spray ups/Team Columbus

It is set to go on eVilbay tomorrow at 2000 ish for 10 days..I would rather it stays here if at all possible

Thanks for looking

One of my favourite frames on the forum, always liked it.

Unfortunately funds a bit low at the moment otherwise i would have been very tempted.

Beautiful

I've seen this in person a couple of times and it certainly doesn't disappoint. It's been used but meticulously looked after during Ernie's ownership. I can also vouch for @Ernie being a trustworthy fellow and a lovely bloke too

Wow, lovely frame and paintwork if it was 17" i would be tempted

In blue and red, very nice looking frame. Sadly he put both of them in storage because he got a new Scott mountain bike.
