1991 Kona Lava Dome frame, Project 2 forks and Impact headset. I believe this is a 19" but don't quote me as Kona's sizing seems to be a black art !
The seat tube is 17" c/c and 20"c/t.
The bad points are the paint and the cracked lockring of the headset. The forks have lost a lot of the paint on the front edge and have surface corrosion but as far as I can tell are still solid, the frame has most of the paint, bar the usual chainstay losses and around the seat tube end where it looks like someone has warmed it to remove a stuck seatpost. There is also the remnants of a sticker on the top tube. I bought this with my heart rather than my head with a view to replicating my very first race bike but I have to now accept the reality of it being too big for me :cry: :cry: :cry:
With a strip down and powder coat (I was quoted £40) and some new decals from Gil she would be looking like the beauty she is underneath. I only wish my legs were longer.
I can email better pics if wanted.
£30 + Postage or can be collected from Nottingham.
