Current Projects chat and miscellany

Decided to go and have a butcher in the shed for my old mountain bike that I used to worship when I was 16, my trusty butted steel Kona Hahanna with Marzocchi Bomber fork that I remember spending 1 years saving up £180 for.

Methinks it's time for disc on the front with a new Deore XT 9 speeds rear and a 38t crankset, as I love the frame and fork, what other upgrade would be worth doing on the Kona?

Man I forget how reasonably light it is, had a blast down Wimbledon Common, need to check if the forum do MTB ride.

If you are considering changing it ... get yourself a rigid fork ... if you don't do offroad that often on it ... Made my marin much lighter. Then Single Speed it ... I love My single speed marin ... I can chuck it around, crash it etc and it just keep on going ... love it.
