Very cool. 91 Cinder Cone was my first proper MTB. Did multiple paper rounds and Saturday jobs to save up for it. Had that 91 Kona poster on my wall! Always wanted the Brodie's and Hei Hei from that catalogue. The CC was a great buy and I still have it today. I went for the cinder gold colour...

Looks great. Like a brand new bike. And Suntour; ❤️. I wonder how many Sallow MTB’s there are in the UK. Can’t be many?

Did all the early Brodie’s have longer head tubes and top tubes with more of a slope? Looks like the later models had a slightly different shape?

@retrobikeguy ?

Would this be a frame designed for a suspension fork? Or would a rigid fork work , without messing up the geometry?

Suntour XC Pro is hard to find, particularly as a full group set. Offhand I’d say ballpark 500 quid depending on condition? Possibly more with the full wheels. A lot depends on condition.

What year is it and what condition?

Decent bike, bet it rides well.

Good idea to use the golf grip. Looks ideal for those bars.

Nice to see it going to a member on here. Look forward to seeing the build.

That route looks great, would love to ride it one day.

@Spanky22b I wonder if the 91 splatter Cinder Cone is a German market model? As it has just the K logo:

Lovely bikes. GLWS

Just spotted on faceache:

Thanks @RetroRider_IT but I got a 122.5mm sorted.
