Thanks dude's. It a Alright bike.. It's just one of those older Kona frames haha.. Believe it or not. my friend was in desperate need of money. so.. he sold me that frame with the rear shock for $150.00.. Thats cheap.. Real Cheap. but thanks for the comments guys. keep them coming!

Also that rear tire is terrible. it's a 2.1. I used to have a 2.5 on there but the beat like deformed. I was so pissed haha. $75 tire gone.. I only used it for a Week! It was a Continental Diesel. Good tred. I would never slip going across wet grass slopes at Sugarbush ski resort. but anyways. yeah, thanks for the comments!

I'd say about 700-800. I just put the same bike (2004 Frame) up for sale, but totally custom with better specs for $1000 CDN. Find mine up for sale for an idea on upgrades.

Thanks, I'm going to put Elixer's on it. and some new Crank arms and BB. A New Rear Tire. and Seat. I'm also looking into a Marzo 888 Fork.

Yeah I went with a 888 on mine. HUGE difference over the Super-T, which I had on it before. Elixer's are sweet. If I were keeping my bike, I'd go with those.

how much did you get this for

Bustacapinya (Sep 14, 2010 at 16:15)

I built the frame up separately. I bought the frame with the rear shock and headset for $150.00 cause my buddy needed money for a bunch of stuff.
