I think this went for 110.99 a few weeks ago but didn't make reserve so is relisted. Fair enough. It's worth more slightly more than that, but not a huge amount.
It looks 18 inches though; not 16.

The stem on it looks well dodgy :shock:

And it looks as if it is painted as it would have been silver :?

Edited as I was refering to the stem colour!

That is the original paint, 1993 Kona's all had a fade colour-scheme.

It seems dodgy in a number of respects, although maybe it's just the innocence of the seller.

As stated above, it's a size 18 not a 16. It's visibly a green to silver grey fade, as is correct for the 93 Cinder Cone, but the seller says black and grey (a bit colour blind perhaps?) And as you say the stem is in a dangerous state, only just inside the steerer and pointing off at an angle. The steerer is steel, so hopefully no damage done, but the stem needs to be dropped into a feasible position before the bike is ridden.

Looks in decent condition though, and that dark green to silver grey fade is very elegant IMPO.
