The obligatory first lockdown girlfriend build to complete the unintentional his and hers quiver. I bought the Kona Honky Tonk frame and forks for a bargainous £50 inc. delivery with a very seized seat post and rusted bottom bracket. Managed to get out the seatpost with heatgun, penetrating deruster, pipewrench and lump hammer. My first from scratch build and even managed to squeeze in some 32s. 1x10 and cheapy parts, the transition from square taper to threaded external BB wasn't ideal for the chainline though, I don't know if there is a way around this?
