With a race winning set-up for sure

Vintage retro KONA SEX ONE mens mountain bike 19" large mans | eBay

The Kona was one of the first full suspension mountain bikes. Has mountain king tyres fitted. I have had this bike from new - about '93/'94. This bike will need a full top to bottom service. Hasn’t seen much use in recent years.
