Hi Folks I am trying to organise a few mates to go to France biking. I have biked in the Alps and find it a bit too hard core, I must be getting old! I am looking for flowing, fast singletrack not rocky, dangerous stuff! I was thinking about the Vosges mountains in Alsace, does...

Folks Got a strange one. I have 2 1994 Kona Lava dome frames, both 19inch. A 2.2 tyre clears on one frame but not the other. I turned them both upside down and find that to the rear of the BB there is a bit of steel in place to brace the triange (I assume the panier would also fit onto...

Hi Folks The plan was sound, get a frame cheap and build it from bits from the shed. Cover it in mud, road salt etc and not worry too much about it. I have been using it a lot, in the snow as trail centres too! Its been fantastic BUT.....No suspension and V-Brakes are a recipe for sore...

I have owned this bike since 1993 and was all original prior to the rebuild. The poor thing was destined for the skip many times and it very nearly made it a few times! I got back into biking about a year ago after a 12 year lay off and decided that I wanted to restore my Lava Dome to be...

Hi Folks I notice in a Kona brochure (2010) that they still sell the Explosif frame. Is this the same as its always been in the 90's or has geometery changed to account for longer travel forks etc? I am struggling to get any information on it. Essentially I want to do a modern...

Folks Not sure about this one as I don’t want to sell it but I need the space in the bike shed! 1994 Kona Lava Dome, 19inch, metallic green. It’s a bit of a mix of retro and non retro with an emphasis on it being totally useable. I guess it’s best to list the spec and see if anybody is...

I have a 1994 Lava Dome and I would like to fit new sus forks. I have heard that Kona didnt change the geometery on the steel frames unitll the very late 90's. With that in mind what is the cut off date for a 1994 Lava Dome for getting the newest forks possible? Will new short travel 80mm...

Hi Folks I require a set of P2 forks for a 1994 19in Lava Dome. The steerer needs to be 162mm and threaded for the first 30mm. The fork length is around 400-405mm I think. Any condition welcome as long as they are straight. Thanks Dave
