Was given this by the current owner of the original Kona dealer in town.
Mounted on 1/4" board, nice for the man cave.
Can't quite make out the signatures though.

That's ace!

Big grin when I had pulled out the seatpost: 27.0 I was searching for ages. Apart from all XT/Mavic goodness :xmas-big-grin:

Re:

Spend the morning inspecting/cleaning parts. One seal of the bb and the pedals are missing; rubber rings on the skewers need replacement; some wear on the middle ring. All bearings smooth. Overall immaculate condition. Some parts for my Basso, seatpost for the Gazelle...

Now football, then bean soup and later: The wheelset.... 8)

Finally the hubs are serviced. Cups and cones are fine. XT 732 laced to Mavic M231 CD rims:

Some spokes are bit loose and I will have to retrue them next week. Almost no signs of wear on the flanks. Now it's time for :beer

Very nice :) Do you have a bike / build for this planned?

Wish I had the rest of it for a build :(

this will be going on my Dave Yates build with some RC30's up front, it'll be getting new paint sadly as it's very rough... shame.

I'd be tempted to keep it as it is then and display it. Only has original and period decals, paint and patina once ;)
