Kona Titanium Serial Number List - update 08/08/25

[al-onestare]

Here's a new additon via IG and the weekly update. This is Rob's HH he's owned since new. I've stacks more pic's of it if you're interested. Over to Rob:

The head badge & seat stay are original decals used on 1994 & 1995 model years. The serial # is B18254 it a 18”.

I built this frame up for one of our team riders from The Cutting Edge in Connecticut. It crossed through a messenger friend of mine & I purchased the frame. It been through many built iterations. It’s almost finished just a couple smaller parts like a Paul stem and orange seat collar.

The fork is a ebay special, has a moot bar, syncro’s post, mostly all Suntour XC Pro, Gravity Research rim crusher brakes & paul brake levers.

Gotta love those bullet stays!!
Indeed we do!











It's another sequential SN as well, so super nice

B18254 - Bullet, Short Seat Tube Extension, original headtube and partial seattube decals, all else missing, ’95 Geometry

Added as:

B16194 - Early Downtube Rear Mech Routing, Blue Decals.

Not only is this the first 1997 16" HH on record, its the first on record since the 1995 model, and it's only the second 1997 HH with blue decals.

Well worth the price if you've been after one in that size and condition.

Do we know who bagged it, would be great to see it as a full bike build

I was told that this King Kahuna just did a 300 mile tour! Great to see them getting big miles.

Nice! I think I saw this on Sadface. Is there a link to the post or any other information? I'm liking the custom paint/decals. The decals look original so I wonder what the story is. For now I've gone with 1998:

KK18049 - Painted top and down-tube: burgandy with white hoops and black edging. All original 1998 decals, missing Kahuna top-tube. Disc tab, unknown if custom or after-market.
