    19" Kona Kilauea, white (95ish) frame or bike

    As in the title, I've always wanted one and its time to scratch that itch. Not too bothered about condition (within reason) as I don't mind re-spraying if needs be. I only want a 19" Kona Kilauea, white (95ish) frame or bike, nothing similar or nearly the same. Money waiting for the right...

    seapost insertion on an extended seat-tube....

    After bending my original seapost on my 95 kilauea I have now purchased a Ti affair off ebay, not too bad but it's come up a little shorter than I was expecting. I'm not sure how the seller can measure 400mm when the most I can see is around 370-80 at a push!! The seatpost doesn't have a...

    Flite ti needed

    I know they come up lots in the for sale section but I'm usually too slow. willng to pay 25-30 odd or maybe more for a really nice one, I would actually prefer alps or transalp if possible. no rips or tears or bent rails, normal light scuffing on rear is fine. I'm only after the simple...

    Selling ivory!??

    Totally off topic, but picking brains. I've just helped my parents clear out my great aunts house and we found a load of Ivory figures/ornaments. I've been looking to sell them, I'm sure someone would buy them but I have no proof of age for them, though I know they are old (40s/50s) before...
