I think it was way earlier than 97 - I have a 1994 fire mountain with threaded 1-1/8” & I think they all were that year

My memory as rusty as my knees. I assumed all the threaded velocity stems were 1in then they went 1 1/8 when they went threadless in 97

Just realized they used 1 1/8th quill stems inbetween and that transition period was longer than I remember

I think Konas steel frames went up to 1 1/8 in 97 and the green one was 99.
Konstantyn 🤔 Kona Stinky and a sharpie ?
Retro but not good retro frame though
