Update on the Kona as well:
Swapped forks before my sister came to visit. Since brake and shifter were integrated - and the fork hade v-brake mounts for 27.5, I mounted disc brakes and rummaged through the parts bin for a front shifter. Found only a gripshift on first look, but this’ll be swapped or removed (if I decide for a 1x setup). She rode it for about 20 km on some local trails and loved it.
Racks are temporarily mounted as I need to get some more nuts and bolts from the hardware store. Fork legs will have a Blackburn cargo cage each as well, my ambition is to be able to haul firewood in the back in a crate or basket, while packing sleep system etc. up front.
Edit: disc compatible wheel up front as well, gotten for free from a colleague.
