Great project.

My question though is about the Explosif, what size is it?

If you wait a few moments mate you may be able to guesstimate its size all i'll say is one is 19"

Well that was the easiest bottom bracket i've ever removed, one tap and the driveside turned , it's unheard of. It was the same for the non driveside, it must want to be rebuilt. Gave it a quick wash and it's already not to bad, very happy that.

Undecided what to do with this....

Got Explosif number 3 out of hiding aswell, it's got patina but i can live with that for this one. No nos parts will be going on this one, the first one i owned i done that and didn't want to ride it because all the parts were brand new looked nice though lol
This one i'd like for the wheelset some black Deore ll hubs on preferably black RM20's rims, i've got a very good idea how i want it to look

Could you take a photo of the seatstays please and a close up of the left side K on the top tube, that Explosif looks familiar

For a second i thought that was my second Explosif i used to have but its a false alarm yours is way nicer
If it was me i'd keep your Explosif and look for some 1" steerer Project two's for it,any none splatter paint Kona would be fair game in my book to take them off. There's always cheap Firemountains and Hahannas knocking about they had 1" Project twos on them.
Also for the colour there's someone who has painted a Firemountain on the Kona group on Facebook in what looks to be identical green to the Explosif so you'd be able to colour match the forks and have fun splatting rhem. I want to get in touch with them myself to find out what the colour code is for this Explosif i'm building,if i find out i'll let you know mate.
Believe me if you sell it you'll regret it

Thanks for the reply this frame has not been on the road for decades, so I would be very interested in the paint code, I will probably decide in the next month whether to build or move it on.
