I don't think it's the right colour for the decals that are on it either, but I may well be corrected on that. They look like '93 decals and that isn't the colour for that year.

I couldnt say for certain but although the frame looks Kona but the rear brake hanger is all wrong for a start.

that's not a Kona frame and certainly not an Explosif.
The rear cable guide on the top tube, rear cable guide and geometry give it away. It just had Kona stickers.....

Looks like a Rocky Mountain to me

That was no Explosif. That was a Brodie. The small, clean welds and the cable noodle give it away. Ask the seller how many digits the serial number has.

We are looking at the same bike ? Siler/white with 93ish decals? 1995 Mag21's...

You can see the welds in detail :shock:


Anyway I disagree on the Brodie as the Explosif would look just like in the picture if it was resprayed with new decals put on.

Which is odd as RetroKona should know as he has one :shock: just his is in original splatter colours from 1989.
