As no doubt many of you will have read in Ernie's post, Pip passed away last week...
Phillip "Pip-meister" Mock - Kona Guru & Legend
Whilst he struggled with his illness Pip maintained a documentary thread of his own...

He also regularly contributed to the "Today's Ride" thread which is well worth a look...

Background to this thread...
Please read all of the following before enquiring about a frame. Please also read my “T&C's” at the bottom of the page.
As some of you are no doubt aware Pip was given the tragic news recently that his cancer has returned and is not operable.
He has his own thread running; “Nearly there”
Could I kindly suggest that you read this, in particular Pip's post of Thursday March 19, 2020 6:14 am on Page 16.
With this incredibly sad news Pip has entrusted me with the job of finding new homes for his frames as well as the components he acquired to keep the bikes going. Letting go of his much beloved collection is heart breaking for him, but something he feels he must do as he doesn't want to leave such a huge job to his family once he has gone and would very much like the frames to stay within the Retrobike community.
As such, if you buy a frame it will be on the “gentlemanly” agreement that you honour his wishes by building the bike to ride and doing a build thread to share on Retrobike. Also, if you decide to let the frame go, it would be good, if at all possible to sell to someone who will do likewise, so we can keep the frames “in the family”.
Given Pip's condition and how he feels about letting his bikes go, please do not contact him about this, it is very difficult for him. If you wish to post something, please post appropriately in his “Nearly there” thread.
As you will know Pip is a stalwart of our Retrobike family and has contributed greatly through his build threads, forum posts, many Kona build and advice posts and his Kona register threads. I would like to do the same with his frames and plan to run a “Pipmeister Collection” register; listing the frames with serial numbers, current owners and links to build threads. This would be done initially on this sales thread. It is the intention, that this will be updated if frames are sold with new owners names and new build threads.
Each one of Pip's frames that are sold will come with a “Pipmeister” decal, designed by me, with Pip's approval and made by Gil. Featuring a "heavy metal" font and a Flying V guitar; if you read Pip's thread you'll see why. Black on white (like RB logo decal) and 75x15mm; will go on top tube or seat-stay....
Pip's main desire is to make the most of the time he has and he plans to ride as much and for as long as he can; either on his beloved mountain bikes (he has retained a few) or on his newly acquired motorbike!
T&C's Please read.....
No time-wasters please (first come first served payment-wise I'm afraid) ...and genuine enquiries only please; I struggle enough with my health as it is without wasting energy unnecessarily, also, as such please bear with me for dispatch times - thanks for your understanding
Postage will be extra and at cost to your location. I will post worldwide @ buyers cost (please pm for a quote) and happy to combine postage for more than one item
Payment by bank transfer or Paypal goods +5% please. Collection is fine (with appropriate care and due diligence, due to Coronavirus!) and saves me packing/posting and buyers P+P costs. NB: Dibs and Paypal 'gift' payments are at my discretion - if you're new to the forum or we haven't dealt before!

Given Pip's condition and how he feels about letting his bikes go, please do not contact him about this, it is very difficult for him. If you wish to post something, please post appropriately in his “Nearly there” thread.
As you will know Pip is a stalwart of our Retrobike family and has contributed greatly through his build threads, forum posts, many Kona build and advice posts and his Kona register threads. I would like to do the same with his frames and plan to run a “Pipmeister Collection” register; listing the frames with serial numbers, current owners and links to build threads. This would be done initially on this sales thread. It is the intention, that this will be updated if frames are sold with new owners names and new build threads.
Each one of Pip's frames that are sold will come with a “Pipmeister” decal, designed by me, with Pip's approval and made by Gil. Featuring a "heavy metal" font and a Flying V guitar; if you read Pip's thread you'll see why. Black on white (like RB logo decal) and 75x15mm; will go on top tube or seat-stay....
Pip's main desire is to make the most of the time he has and he plans to ride as much and for as long as he can; either on his beloved mountain bikes (he has retained a few) or on his newly acquired motorbike!
T&C's Please read.....
No time-wasters please (first come first served payment-wise I'm afraid) ...and genuine enquiries only please; I struggle enough with my health as it is without wasting energy unnecessarily, also, as such please bear with me for dispatch times - thanks for your understanding
Postage will be extra and at cost to your location. I will post worldwide @ buyers cost (please pm for a quote) and happy to combine postage for more than one item
Payment by bank transfer or Paypal goods +5% please. Collection is fine (with appropriate care and due diligence, due to Coronavirus!) and saves me packing/posting and buyers P+P costs. NB: Dibs and Paypal 'gift' payments are at my discretion - if you're new to the forum or we haven't dealt before!
