Titanium Frame - What Make? Kona? Rocky? ???

[shutter]

Anybody know what brand and model this frame is?? Is it a KONA? Model?

What's it worth? I know there's a "What's it Worth" thread but I'm more so wondering what make it is and some info on it... thanks!

It's made by Sandvik (has the same type of serial number as my Kona Ti road frame). It even has the same BB cable guide as my Kona Haole. No idea if it's a Kona though.

Take a photo of the dropouts (including where the seat/chainstay meet them) - this might help people to identify it.

Any sandvik frame is worth at least 300 quid in my book. More desirable brands make considerably more - it isn't hard to pay £600 for a kona hei hei these days

it doesnt appear to have any rear stop for the brake cable, which kinda points to kona and their dog collars...

Pretty sure that's a early-mid 1990's Hei Hei (19" no. 602) although I'm sure others will be able to confirm

Definetly Sandvik. It's not a Mongoose nor a DBR nor a Dean. Lack of rear brake cable guide suggests early Kona Hei Hei.

looks the same as my 1993 hei hei

The 1993 Kona catalogue shows a cable stop rather than a dog collar, though I know these things changed through the year. 1994 had the dog collar. Looks really nice, whatever, and just my size..! A quality find, mystery bike - what was the disguise - I can't read the decals?

Thanks! I'm going to get it cleaned up and get some more pics... I plan on branding it as a NUKEPROOF if I can't figure out exactly what it is... But if 100% sure its a Kona I'll go Kona...

Pics later in the week

Thanks!!

I agree for Sandvik.
Kona's serial number began with B for "Bicycle group", the size followed (16 for exemple) and the serial number. It could be a kona
