    1995 Kona Sex Too

    Introducing my latest purchase, John Balmer's 1995 Kona Sex Too. I recently purchased this 1995 Kona Custom Cruiser, from a personal friend of former Kona employee John Balmer. I had originally passed on this one, but I couldn't stop thinking about having all three 'New for 1995' Kona bikes...

    1995 Kona Custom Cruiser Stars & Bars

    Shock and awe. That is what I felt when I woke up last Saturday, after receiving an offer for a bike I never thought I would have a chance to buy. I had slept until noon, after riding my Trek 990 until 1 AM with my friends until my Cateye batteries died, and I woke up to a message from my...

    Dia Compe 290T Kit?

    I just picked up this off of eBay, and I think it might work with Dia Compe 290/292 Bat Wing/Dog Leg levers. It appears to allow one lever to actuate two brake calipers via two individual cables. I have some 292 on my Humu, but I'm not in a position to remove the cockpit to test fit these bits...

    1995 Kona Kilauea

    I finally found one of my dream bikes! I recently bought a 1991 Scott Boulder from my friend Matt for $150, and I hadn't picked it up yet. On Friday evening, Matt showed me this bike listed on Facebook Marketpalce, and basically bought back the Scott so I could go buy this bike. The listing was...

    1995(?) Kona Humu in Yellow

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/125268486013 I've been watching this one for a day or so, and I can't find another Humu like it. This one has the 1995 Humu kit, with all the right silver hardware, cranks, and brakes from 1995, and the orange decals from that year. All of the other yellow Humus I've...

    Early 1993 Kona Haole 57cm St. Louis MO

    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/386096883070275/ This makes the 4th Haole I've seen pop up for sale in St. Louis. All too large, and too expensive for me, which I guess is fortunate.

    Unknown CNC cantilever brakes

    I picked these up today at the local Co-Op for $2 USD. I looked around here, and on BikePro.com, and I couldn't find anything that matches. The brake pad post clamp is very unique, whereas the spring tension adjuster looks like most of the ones in this form factor. Does anyone have a name or...

    1991 Trek 990

    I bought this bike almost exactly 3 years ago, for only $15, at my regular thrift store. Here is the bike right before purchase, at the check out counter. Here it is after I got it home. It was filthy, well used, and had some parts upgraded at some point. I immediately noticed the different...

    I don't think I have ever seen this posted here before, or elsewhere online. I picked this up a few years ago on eBay, along with a regular 1994 catalog, which this was a supplemental to. Does anyone have more information? I just recently brought home a high resolution Epson flat bed scanner...

    Suntour 6 speed thumb shifters - help me ID these please!

    I picked these up at a local used bike store for $5 and I can't seem to identify them. The part that baffles me are the clamps. I've never seen Suntour shifters with a hinged clamp before. The rear shifter is 6 speed indexed or friction. What do you think?
