I bought this Kona frame severals year ago here from RetroBike user rojo. When I saw it I felt the need to have it ;-)
As you might know, I'm somehow an Marzocchi 'special idiot', as I do only Marzocchi front suspension forks from the 90's (and this takes most of my free time).
I always had bikes in my life, but most of it have been moved in city. So this will be my first somehow rebuild.
Now it's time to ride it again. I need a bike for short trips around here - nothing wild - and for driving to sports places.
This was the thread where rojo sold the frame.
It will be not a original rebuild, I want a red stem and a red seatpost. Also I'd like to continue riding the older Maguras.
Instead of the original XC700 I want a red DH3 . The DH3 has some more travel (72mm) compared to the other XC's from the 90's, I hope it will lift the front a little bit.
Also a black steerer, black headset, black seatpost boldener.
Don't know about the rear damper. I have another Sintesi Verlicchi frame which has an older Marzocchi rear damper mounted (Marzocchi A0033). Need to test both.
Feel free to comment or suggest you ideas's pleace.
