Kona Caldera - bright pink

Posted on
  • Hi all,

    I fancied a bit of a project a while ago which I lost interest in when I started buying Colnago's! This has been sat collecting dust for the last year, figure I should sell it to someone who will use it, this bike just needs 'finishing'.

    . 2009 Kona Caldera, size large
    . FSA chainset
    . Shimano Deore XT rear hub
    . Promax front
    . Mavic rims
    . Unbranded tyres
    . Deore rear mech
    . Shimano hydraulic brakes
    . Rockshox tora forks
    . FSA headset
    . Kona cockpit
    . Brooks saddle
    . Aluminium post

    I've done 0 miles on this bike, but the frame, forks, wheels etc seem good condition. The original plan was to make a nice rigid, single-speed XT bike, but I lost interest.

    The bike is 90% original, but has recently had a new shifter pod, inner and outer gear cables, new headset and chain.

    I've put quality grease in the headset and BB when installing them.

    Bad points:

    . frame has been powder-coated in bright pink. This was done by me when we were doing the R&D on crinkle finish powder-coat, it's not very smooth or consistent, but it is very durable.
    . Previous owner has somehow managed to wear down the drive-side BB cup, still functions but there's quite a bit of raw metal.
    . Rear mech needs some attention, the stopper is upside down and possibly some of it missing. When you pedal backwards the chain loosens, the mech also hits the chainstay.
    . Forks work perfectly, but there's no lock-out feature
    . Missing 1 stem bolt

    I'd like £120 posted anywhere in the UK please.

  • You reckon that bb cup will ever come out?

  • so, what is the ral code of the colour?

  • Yes, I installed it about 6 months ago with some fresh grease, it still functions perfectly :)

    Off the top of my head, I'm not sure sadly!
