94 Explosif build. Finished p7/8

Finally the sun made an appearance 😎. Got out for a 15-20min ride. Dialled in the gears, brakes and got the tyre pressure sorted. Shake down ride over, rides beautifully 😁. Trying to source another set of front chainrings and maybe a set of gray grips, but other that that I’m just going to enjoy it. Next project will need to wait till after I make some room. First up for sale will be my Mac B. Sad day but I’m on a strict one out, one in diet from now on.
 
More sun today, and a bit of free time. Myself, my daughter and my wife had a short ride together. First of the year together, bikes were perfect. The more I ride the Explosif the better it seems to get 😁. 77E9D617-9FBC-41A1-8A75-7D449DC1A2DF.jpeg
 
Next time my sons home I’m going to let him ride my 96 Kilauea, attempt to get the whole Kona collection out at the same time.
 
Today these arrived in the post 😁. I’ll try and get them fitted in the next day or two. 577A51A9-0E1F-4246-85CC-C6C11F39F0E1.jpeg
 
Pace rings fitted, and orange dust caps. Not to all tastes, but I like them. 1CEFA7FD-DE29-4350-B2BB-7D874BCAD8D8.jpeg BD72CEF7-D468-4FB3-94B4-F8A5E711ED18.jpeg

These arrived in the post recently, now I have a dilemma! Do I fit these to the Explosif? Or start seriously looking for a Hei Hei? M900 front and rear mechs and a set of straight Ti bars. No rise and no sweep, I think they look great! Also I’m going to mod the rear mech to a long cage. Not sure if I should repaint the bars or strip them to bare Ti brushed finish?
