I’m moving to France and need to sell a load of stuff before I go. Take a look and let me know if you have any questions. Based in SE16 but willing to travel / meet somewhere in London if required.
Kona 1997 Lava Dome 19” Full build £280 ono
Sadly parting ways with my beloved Kona Lava Dome. I had this built up with a full XTR M-950/952 group set and it absolutely slapped. Did most of the Old Chalk Way on it and many other overnighters, long days, forest jaunts etc. I'm selling most of that groupset if anyone is interested and also keeping some bits. You can find that here https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/390806/
Paint is a really nice metallic sparkly deep green, with yellow logos, in pretty good condition considering how old it is. See photos. It's a chromoly frame which seems really solidly built.
I originally had all these parts on the purple Lava Dome (also listed below) for my wife but she never rode it, so I swapped it all back onto the larger frame. I would obviously prefer to sell it as seen but would consider splitting it out for parts out if you make the right offer. Just let me know!

Had this built up as a fixed gear many years ago. Paint is tatty, and I think it's a little bit out of alignment, but I need it gone and don't want to throw it, it's a lovely frame.
