Did we get a SN for this one?

Awesome work for uploading this - thank you 👍

That sounds about right!

An exciting addition to the Kona custom serial number lists: titanium P2 forks! :cool: Big thanks to @sovereign for sharing this idea, and also thanks for this patience as I finally found sometime today to add them to this thread. This means we need to add some factual narrative about their...

Great wall art though...to be fair, this is repairable in the right hands and if it were mine, it'd be ridden with zero regrets of any further scrapes and scratches. Did anyone here score it? I've updated the list: H09607080 - 16" 1997 Red, Goathead Dropouts. Original Decals. Top of seat-tube...

Over on the Caldera thread, thanks to @murphy79 @TiHardtail we have the 1997 dealer tech sheet. What's that about 853 tubing? Errrr...we know that's not the case as well discussed here. It does add more evidence to the "Altitude were struggling" theory.

Well...also from the same tech details: This is contrary to the 853 decals which say main tubes only...🫠 So your theory is sound for sure and more evidence that Altitude were experiencing some issues!

Two cracking posts @murphy79 I'll add the dealer spec to the first post and also add it to the new website to-do pile (more on that another day). No bulge on mine or many of them, but I'll add it to the criteria as well. Still no idea what "Altitude Cromoly Heat-treated tubing" is. We might...

Almost identical conditions. Apparently 10 degrees but definitely much less, dipping to 5 in many spots. Clear skies, orange sunrise, pinks and yellows like a natural kaleidoscope. A very light 3-4mph S breeze resulted in amazing blankets of mist 👍

An absolute tank but with some work it'll be a great bike park ripper on a budget.

The only tweak is using a different spring and/or adjusting the rebound with the basic adjuster. I highly recommend having it serviced by Silverfish if the budget allows. Be super careful with the stays. They are super slim and a weak point.

Great stuff. These are more agile than they look once you get pedaling. In my experience, it's best at home on a "hard" blue bike park trail. For an improved riding experience, I highly recommend having the fork serviced by Silverfish and swap out the forks for something that works.

Magical morning. Barely a breath of wind, wild temperature changes, even on a pedal by pedal stroke, anything between 5 and 10 degrees. Clear skies, the odd bit of high cloud, stunning orange sunrise with west-coast California pinks, blues and yellows. Mystical mist. All downhill from here 🤌

Awesome work 👍 any in-flight pics?

Took a wrong turn yesterday evening and ended up doing a much longer loop than planned. One I usually do in the summer before it gets boggy so thankfully it was rideable and super quiet. There's nothing like seeing the sunlight fade , bombing downhill knowing home is just a few more miles away.

Great way to close out Thursday (yesterday) with a nice loop with Carnbike. Yep I rode with someone else. Unheard of! Contrary to the picture, it was off-road 😂 Normal service will be resumed later: just me and trying to avoid the odd spot of mud 👍

Fanfare please 📯 "Officially" the 13th Caldera 1997 SN on file. Somewhat hidden away on a FB post showing a small collection of Kona frames, this appeared. Naturally I jumped on it and asked the usual questions. The current owner kindly shared the SN as #188 and the following details when...

Good shout. The mid season Nunu must of had them I reckon.

That was later, circa 1999 range onwards.

Forgive me for the lack of a name. It was the very slim, hopelessly slippy spiral design. They're hens teeth because everyone binned them 🤭
