My old bike is also a Cinder Cone
Pretty decent bike

My latest rig is a 2004 Dawg Primo

Doesn't get much sweeter than that, if it was any hotter I'd be sprting wood

[Beartrap Blade]

She looks sweet!
Tell me, do you find the stock Koski seatpost bend at all?
Are you a "Clump" rider, like myself? LOL

[bryanjetboy]

Seatpost is an IRD Quad Two
Seems stiff enough so far

[brschmid]

Hello, I just picked up this 2k3 Kikapu on Sunday, i got a pretty good deal on it, and it was brand new. I road it for the first time today just around town trying to get a feel for it, i did about 10 miles.

[adze]

Not real good with the whole technology thing but here is the bike! Photo was taken about a week after I purchased it so still looks really clean. Most of my riding is done in south-west Western Australia on single tracks. Just new to this as my last bike was a merida cross. have fun, adze

[adze]

once more to see if it works this time!

[brschmid]

whatever you are trying to link to isn't linkable.

I swore I posted this but nevermind

my 2003 Kona Stinky, Heavily Modified, Jnr T internals now have carbon pumping rods, and the Stainless steel valves, polished up n all

Totally rebuilt and refinished. I bought this frame online from a guy living in British Columbia, Canada. Every part on this bike came from ebay.

It had some light indentations that I had filled in with braze. Then I power coated white. What a beautiful finish. I just took it out for a spin last week for the first time. A fantastic riding frame. Smooth, plush and predictable. The SID Race really helps. A great light weight Colombus MAX OR tubed frame. Highly recommended.

Here comes maybe one of the oldest Kona in this thread. Frame is Kona Sex Three (-96), everyting else more or less updated.

'04 Kikapu Frame built with some left over parts and a '03 Marz MX Comp 105mm fork. Still dialing in the suspension though. I'm 205lbs and tried the Float at 190psi but still haven't gotten full travel in the rear after riding some rocky descents in Southern Cali.

[TrailNut]

my main xc ride, that i'll keep forever, is a 1998 Kona Lavadome 18" green steel frame (~4.5#). i've replaced everything from that bike, but the cool retro hardtail frame, adorned with many scratches and dents (i use clear nail polish to ward off rust).

'03 marz mx 105mm eta fork 4.4# (dang, i wish i had known that the '04 mx would have 120mm)
dave's dream wheels (rear: ust&standard dual rim)
hope mono mini hydro disk (sweet!) on front (got no rear disk brake boss, don't need 'em)
avid ti rear brake with sram lever
mamahon ti seatpost (& thompson alum seats post as backup, 'cause that ti post has bent)
sel flite gel saddle with ti rails
chris king headset
marin xc riser bar with 120mm stem (soon to get Moots stuff...)
xt hollowtech drive train & shifters
steel water bottle cage

total weight = 27#s (not counting saddle bag, H2O, and tire pump)

picture to be posted...

wondering if the 2.4" wtb 'weir tire will fit on this frame?


my next ride: kona stinky or the stinky delux or da santa cruz vp-free...(?)

[Rip]

Pretty much done.

another fellow Kikapu rider

2002 Bear Deelux. Got the frame end of last season and built it up.

Seems to be the only coil sprung Bear/Dawg Deelux out there. I'm a little nervous about switching to air cause I'm a little heavy (200 lbs) and ride real hard. I'm one of those maniacs who accelerates into rock gardens just to see what'll happen.

Any other maniacs out there on Dawgs have blowouts on the floats?

29yrs old, 6'2 290lbs. Biking to become less fat. Upgraded front fork to Fox Vanilla 125RLC its much better than stock
