Moosey Moose's "Pipmeister" 1995 Kona Kula - Updated

[wadsy]

Rachael is an ex (bitd!) Kona sponsored rider. One of her race bikes was a '95 Kula and she, like many of us, wanted to get that old frame back and rebuild it.

The more modern spec may not be to all tastes, but Rachael has a substantial bike collection (30 odd) all of which get ridden, so this is built to ride

She's sent me a few pics to upload to the forum to share and continue the Pipmesiter register.

Cheers

Bit of background info and 'bitd' pic Rachael has sent me....

"Picture taken at Avon Valley Cyclery as they were my sponsors who looked after my bike. Rode for Kona 95 - 98, started with cross country then went to downhill. Won the master category in 98 & went to the World Champs in Mt St Anne, Canada. Riding for Kona back then was great fun, think its a bit different now though!"

Nice bike. I love the colour and don’t mind the modern mix if it’s for reasons outlined....

Still looks retro.

Very nice,. Looks like ti bars and stem, but on this screen it's really hard to tell

Looks great, and some nice parts on there, could do with those wheels myself

Yep. Ti bars, stem & seatpost, with a splash of ti bolts here & there.

I love the look of 980 XTR, along with 9000 Dura Ace. The contrast of the black and the 'diamond cut' finish looks so crisp and precise.

Saddle may need a bit of height adjustment!
