Had to bleed the brakes through and straigten the wheels up a bit also put a few new parts on it. Haven't been out riding in years now, but I took it out for a spin on a trail a built on my farm a while ago, every thing was a bit overgrown but was really cool. Forgot how much fun it was... Heres a few pics of the bike




Good to know my back brakes are bigger than the ones that used to be on my car

Yea, built it all up over the years when I used to race... Probably spent far too much money on it Nothing on it is orginal, not even the frame - I kept on snapping them in half so Kona kept on giving me new ones (the people who built the frame)

You shouldnt lie the bike down on that side as it will hit the rear mech and could put the gears out

Cool bike though
