DrDaveTampa's 1998 Kona Kilauea. Link for deets

Found this frame on Ebay in rough condition. Powder coated mustard yellow and replaced decals to match original. Not exactly a catalog rebuild, but I gotta ride this thing so Fox fork and clutch derailleur it is. I put an XT 10 speed derailleur on the thing but the secret sauce is the Saint...

I'd buy it stat, except facebook is so sketchy. Anybody know of a good bike shop in Pietra Ligure? Get eyeballs on the thing

Tom will make ya one. Link

I know people talk smack about XTR v brakes but I absolutely love the durn things. Kinda feel the same about Mavic 230 TIB rims. I guess a racer could tear either one of those apart in a few minutes, but I'm no racer. RE forks, marzocchi of course, is that a trick question? I dunno, the...

Kinda have my eye on House of Looptail's Snake Belly tires (he has a presence on Facebook). He keeps threatening to re-release the Megabyte, although for what I use my Ritchey for, the Snake Belly would be about perfect

Yeah the black cranks really work. What kinda tires are you thinking?

All kinds of stuff you can do with the front wheel, but only so much you can do with the rear. You can cram a bigger rim in there, but not a bigger wheel in terms of diameter. Given the limits on diameter, I'd just as soon put a fat (ish) 26" tire back there. I converted a frame like that...

World's nicest donor bike, ever. Personally I'd swap the saddle over to the Ritchey also. I'd hang on to the wheels too, ya don't run into pristine rims like that every day.

I'm typically looking for 50-75mm rise in the handlebars to get myself comfortable on a 90's mtb frame. MX style handlebars work for me, if I'm looking for good handling, and the ability to handle rough terrain. Think Surly Sunrise, VO Klunker, something like that. (The VO Utility Riser...

Were you able to locate tubeset decals?

Aha! Yes the handlebars are exquisite. Been kinda looking at Ducati handlebars myself, for the same effect. Although those are definitely bicycle handlebars... what's the story behind those?

You're a better man than I. I measured the spindle, put my hand on a rock, looked up at the sky and said, "Suntour!" I saw the light.

According to this it was made in the US and there are several examples in the database with a similar numbering scheme and at least one I saw pictured with a Logic fork. Dunno how long TR had that dude welding in his shop but it does look like late 80's geometry don't it. Should be a sweet...

Nobody knows why but the "size" of a mountain bike is based on the seat tube length, which has nothing to do with anything. I remember back when I was a kid, the folks at the Schwinn shop were focused almost exclusively on standover height, and I kinda get that for a diamond frame road bike...

I have a pair of Atek's in rider condition, could use some polish. May have an NOS pair of Mirox rims, can't remember if I ever found a match for my orphan but I think I did... Both 32h iirc. I'll run out to storage sometime in the next couple of days to check A bunch of campy rims hit the...
