Re: Read This: Of Old Barns & Unicorns - 1996 Kona King Kahu NOS or not, this is an absolute thing of beauty. If I had the money I would already have pm'd the seller and done a deal as it's virtually a one off and something that should be tearing up the miles like it was designed to do.

I'm potentially going to buy a bike on ebay, and wondered if there was anyone who would be willing to pick it up and post it on for me. I'll pay for your troubles or see if I've got a bike part you need. Thanks.

It should literally mean "new old stock" as in "left in a shop/with manufacturers" and unearthed totally unused never sold or fitted, it isn't always mint as there could be storage marks, but there is definitely no such thing as near, virtual, almost or any word like that nos, either it's new...

Are these the frog ones? Did you want the newer style ones, or the older classic HS33's? Didn't they only make like 1500 sets in total? This guy appears to have plenty of Magura stuff so might be worth a message: http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showth ... 91&page=11

I've got a copy of MBUK from 1999 with these advertised at £179.99 new, so I suspect the same now is a bit steep. If you put them up for auction I'd expect to see anything from £80 to 120.

£80 must be worth a punt if it's deore equipped. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/mens-mountain ... 3cdea46b81

Looks to have some nice parts and might go for cheap because there's no postage. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kona-stab-/25 ... 3a8d797ae6

Looks like it's in nice condition and I don't see why it shouldn't make £250ish if it's as clean as you say, however there's no such thing as "almost NOS", it either is or isn't. It's like the hospital saying "Don't worry he's almost alive".

Must be worth that to someone near Sheffield. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kona-MB-FRAME ... 3cde511124

It's all yours Lumos2000, please can you pm me your address and I'll send it out.

I can honestly say I have never owned any Magura Racelines, so I have no idea how this came into my possession. Either way it's a Raceline brake booster, it isn't bent or broken but is faded on the front and back, although it's worse on the front, hopefully it'll find itself a good home and be...

Looks like a 1998 to me, here's the link to the catalog here: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/gallery2/v/M ... b.jpg.html

I'm guessing this is circa 1998 based on the forks, I'd be all over this if it was slightly closer and bigger. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Marin-mountai ... 19ea16a870

Seems nice, looks fairly standard and might go cheapish as it's collection only. I'd be very interested in the saddle if someone on here does buy it (and doesn't want the saddle!) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kona-Cinder-C ... 3cddf50273

The price of these is truly all over the place, so on Ebay you could probably get anything from £80 to £150 depending on who wants it. As far as here, I suspect nearer to £100 although provenance often adds a few quid so the original receipt or some pics of you on it bitd will help to bump the...
