I rescured this Kona 'Main' steel BMX from a shed in Hereford after seeing it in the local small ads.
It appears all original apart fom the period looking saddle and the V-brake was broken so I replaced it with a Shimano DXR lever and V-brake and white outer cable and stainless inner.
I replaced the tyres with Tioga Power Blocks 20 x1.75s and new tubes with dice caps.
New Izumi chain
New period-ish looking 24Seven grips which are filthy depsite only a handful of rides and my tryim to clean them.
The only specs I could find are here: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/gallery2/v/user_albums/DM/Kona-Main-BMX-Specs.jpg.html
I've enjoyed the re-build process and taking it around my local pump track but I need to clear some room in the shed, and my 56-year-old body is no longer designed for BMXing
I'm asking £120 which is less than the purchase and parts cost but I'm open to offers.
I'm in Hay-on-Wye but delivery / meeting part way might be possible for a contribution to fuel costs or I could courier it at buyer's expense.
happy to prpvide more pics or details.
