As I am still looking for a yearly Kona Hei Hei, I some times find some other interesting bikes. To day I came over a Kona Lava Dome, since I got the bike real cheap (£50) I thought that I might could use the wheels, grab the P2 fork and the race light parts. Then get rid off the rest of the bike as the owner said it was an 18,5" So I thought it must be an 19".
But the bike where a 17" and its not ridden!! It has been standing in a garage for years! The women who owned it had only ridden for a couple off seasons, and the bike has no wear marks from cabling, or chain! Just has few scratches from all the years in the garage!
It still has the original tires!!, only "damage" she has done, is to get the bike shop to install a horrible stem... as she didn't feel conferrable on the bike.
So I guess I have bought myself a new project? it is a petty to slaughter this bike. As specially since my favorite is the 17"...
But with two Explosifs, one G.F. Roscoe, one KHS Montana Pro and my two commuters Marin Nail Tail and Kona Dew deluxe. I have kind of filled up my garage ....
