i may be mistaken, but i think the buyer is a member here.

what is up with the kona stuff? i've never seen a more rabid group of fans. anyway, i've been paying more attention to it as a result. can i get a brief summary of the line and history? there are many kona bikes in my town and i see them and wonder if they are the same models so many here seem...

interesting! it looks to be rusted and cracked at the seat stays though.

picked it up saturday! as you suspected, the seller was not the owner or really even interested in bikes. he operates a store and ebays whatever people bring to him. he had done some research on the web about grove innovations and found out what he could before listing. yes, with the wording...

first flight is offering up a set. not nos, but still nice. item #7240777078 there was a lot of enthusiasm for another set recently, so i thought to mention. maybe he'll ship overseas as well. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... %3AIT&rd=1
