In my quest to recreate my very first proper mtb I have ended up with 2 of these so I'm having a clearout of the excess !
1992 Lava Dome frame in purple, triple butted P2 forks and velocity stem.
I don't know what the official Kona size for it is but the frame measurements are as follows:
Seat tube c/c - 17"
Seat tube c/t - 20 1/4"
Top tube c/c - 22 1/4"
Head tube - 6"
The triple butted P2's are 1 1/8" with a 183mm steerer which has 29mm of thread, the Velocity stem is also 1 1/8 with a 130mm reach.
Although the full set is solid enough the paintwork is by no means perfect on any of it. I've tried to show this in the photos but I have high res copies that I can email should anyone want them. The worst are on the frame is around the seatpost where the previous owner had tried to remove the stuck seatpost (I have since done this properly). There is a good amount of paint missing from this area and some of the paint that's left round the frame junction is pitted. The previous seatpost removal attempt has also left the top of the tube a little splayed and the tube top is a little chewed. It's not major and would easily be sorted just by popping a seat clamp back on it but I want to point these things out.
The forks are again nice and solid but do have marks down most of both legs and the crown, again as seen in the pics.
As you can tell it's no showroom beauty but is a good solid frame and could easily be brought back to garage queen with a powder coat and fresh decals or happily ridden as is with no shame.
Although not shown in the pictures it will come with a rear brake cable guide.

Frame, Forks & Stem including UK postage - £50
I'm happy to post abroad but this would cost extra.
