JimboG’s 96 Kona Hot build

[JimboG]

Evening all. As the Kona Hot was on my want list, I sold my granny and picked this up a couple of weeks ago. Some of you may know the frame as it has been owned by retrobike members before, who had plans to repaint it etc. The frame is a 96 with 98 decals and is rumoured to have been repainted by Pashley cycles back in 98. I’m going to keep it as is for now and get it built up.
Thinking M952 XTR, Race face turbines, bombers, Thomson, Crossmax wheels etc. Will make a nice partner for my 96 Hei Hei.

Bought these Bomber z2 super fly's from @d8mok and will likely end up one the bike. Still tempted to use Pace RC 31’s if I can find a pair with the right measurements.

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out


Since it’s my old frame and fork I still feel connected to it.
