Retro Kona?

[TheClutter]

I managed to get myself a lovely 18" Kona Lava Dome, I got an 18" because my Boardman mtb is 18. But its tiny..! Does anyone know what size retro Kona you need if your 6ft? tall

I went by this guide I found online

Im 5' 8" and the 18" fits me perfectly

I am 6ft 3 and ride a 20 inch Kona. I'd say you need 19 inch as a six footer.

A 19-20 at 6'. An 18 is too small.

Thank you very much John. 19 inch is definitely the perfect fit for me.

Thanks

I'd say you need a longer seat post. tied with a longer stem.

have you seen how we used to ride?

good luck in your search for the right size. even a 20" seems small compared to modern bikes.

Exactly this.

I used to swear to 19" before I rode a modern bike. 21" old skool is now tiddly in comparison.
