Kona Explosif (Fell out of a Tree)

[greencat]

I could probably get someone to get in touch with him, I'm still friends with Andy Manterfield & Harvey. What sort of thing do you think someone will need?

A short signed note from Steve confirming prior ownership would be great.

It's the right size for Steve (defo 20") and the forks look the same as the picture, plus there are enough top tube dinks to show it's been bar spun / used as intended (!)

Looks encouraging to me.

16" ? deffinetly not looks to be a 20" going by headtube

It's the camera angle makes it look bigger my 93 Explosif is a 14" and the Kilauea is a 16", honest mate

think you need a new measuring device

The '93 Explosif and Kilauea in the picture look a lot bigger than that.
Are you actually joking?

Hi All, I measured the bike & it's 20"
I also spoke to Andy Manterfield on Tuesday night, and he confirmed he bought it directly from Steve (he is still mates with Steve)
Andy also sent me this link, and said that he thought Steve was riding the Explosif in this clip

Apart from getting a signed note from Steve himself, there is no doubt about this bike.
The ebay auction ends on Sunday afternoon if you are interested in it, collection from Milton Keynes.
