    Please help identify frame and inverted suspension fork

    A good shiver is worth a pretty hefty amount. I'd do your research, make sure it's not stolen. If it comes up clean, a good shiver is worth a good amount of xtr.

    Recommend a suspension fork for 1999 Kona Explosif.

    85 Fisher competition question. Welded? Serial w/f

    Yeah that's what I was thinking as well. I know Competition models had a C in the serial. Any idea what the PC had? This frame appears to have an F in the serial

    eBay scam?

    Take the offer and ship to the address given to you by Ebay, shouldn't be an issue. I've sold 15 or so items that way, never had an issue outside of ship time. Maybe take extra pics just in case.
