KonaFlex (Prona?) up for sale
« on: February 26, 2005, 09:50:10 am »
Hey guys,



The wife, Commander-in-Chief, CFO, etc. says one of the bikes has got to go before we even think about the next one...



This is a Kona Blast with a Proflex front end that I've had a few years.



It's a combo XC - urban assault bike. It's way too stiff for my old bones, but quite quick.



I just put on new brakes today. The spec is:



Proflex /Girvin Vector Forks circa 1996 w/ 250# spring [smiley=nod.gif]



Truvative Firex cranks



Weinmann 551 rims



IRC Mythos tires



Schrader tubes



Bontrager flat bars



Nashbar Jail Breaks



Deore levers



SDG Satellite saddle



Deore RD - 7 spd



Alivio FD - 3 spd



SPD pedals (Nashbar?)



She's a good hucking bike for one of you young guys or a decent woods racer.



I'll take $250 plus shipping for the whole enchilada if any of y'all want it.



Heres a pic from my gallery here:







Cheers, Will

I measured the BB to the top of the seat tube at 17" and the top tube is 22"

That would make her fairly small. I'm 5' 9" (Roughly 1.77 meters for those using a modern system of measurement!) and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone taller than I. Fits me pretty nicely with the long stem and high seatpost.

Why must you tempt me so!

I love Konas - K2 and Kona are both from my area and I like riding locally made bikes.

Don't think I can come up with the $$$ at the moment, or I'd jump on this!

00 K2 Evo 4.0
99 K2 Flying Monkey
03 Salsa Caballero Scandium

ROAD:
06 Cervelo Soloist Carbon
06 Look 555 carbon
