    Steel then and now - is there really a noticeable difference

    Well I was amazed when I bought my 2013 Genesis Reynolds 520 and compared this with my 1994 Kona Cinder Cone 4130. The Genesis tubes were so much fatter than the Kona, the Kona is definitely more pleasing on the eye and lighter.

    Front brake left or right , is it the law ?

    Don't go to all the trouble and hassle of swapping the levers, just ask your bride to cross her arms when riding the bike, job done, as long as she's not got dyspraxia.

    I also quite like the wood grain on that table, is it varnished or waxed, are you selling this with the keys and the flat? Not interested in the Kona key ring as its just tat, can you discount without this?
