    Wanted 1990 Kona Explosif Frame or complete bike 19 or 21"

    Thought so. I’ve got a 19” 89 explosif frameset available but the pistachio paint has been crudely over sprayed.

    Rather Nice DeKerf Package 18.5" - Warwickshire

    I got £850 for this whole bike last year. Mid 200s frame number so an early bike. Took a long time to sell too.

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    I’d aimed to have it completed by the 10th of June and I just managed to do it. I’m really pleased with how it’s turned out. But more importantly, it rides really nicely. It weighs 22lb and feel very light and responsive. I can’t wait to put some miles on it. So many thanks Greg Fuquay. I’m so...

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    Started adding some parts and I love how it’s turning out. I had the XTR m900 groupset put aside for it. Also some nice black ceramic Mavic 717 on American Classic hubs, these are super light. A little newer than the bike but they look great and the brake surface won’t wear when I use it (which...

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    I’d actually bought a set of white replacement decals from Gil at Retrodecals just after I found it. When the frame forks and stem were back from the powder coaters I had to find the decals. That took a while! The stem in a period cromo that’s 120mm with a little rise. The frame is 20” center...

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    Then it sat in my projects queue for a long while as a frameset which got moved about a lot in storage and during a house move. Greg Fuquay passing away in June 2024 spurred me on to do something with it by this time this year (2025 if you’re reading this in the future). I didn’t have a yellow...

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    I’m not sure if the Reynolds 853 decal is correct but like the head tube decal it’s on top of the paint. Did Fuquay use that steel? I’ve assumed that because of the canti rear cable guide it’s 1996 or earlier. I can’t find any frame number on it.

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    The bike I went for was still a bit of a mystery but it was a quick collection so I didn’t inspect it much. I dropped the other three bikes off to a bike charity on the way home. When I got back I took in what I’d bought. The cranks were Grafton but the NDS arm had a hairline crack (anyone got...

    Greg Fuquay 95ish CMR? Found and restored.

    Thought I’d make a thread of sorts for my Fuquay. It’s come a long way since finding it! Tomorrow is a year to the day of Greg’s passing so it seemed apt to show him some respect and acknowledge what a great bike builder he was. I now have some personal experience on one of his machines and I am...
