Love the old Konas. My '95 Lava Dome has been through a few different builds, and I'm about to build it back up. That steel just rides so smoothly.

Yes. I love my Hahanna. After this season I'll be upgrading all the components to something as modern as I can justify.
 
Easier to just get another bike. At least it was for me. I was way out of date.
 
2018 Santa Cruz Hightower LT. Love my bike, luckily I'm able to ride great trails 2-3 days /week.

New to me 2015 spearfish 29er
 
I am old... school. I know that the new bikes with marginally good components are light years ahead of what I have. My problem is resource allocation. I have kids that are growing like weeds and need their own rides, so I upgraded my CX drivetrain. The leftover cassette, rear derailleur, bar end shifter and bars ended up on the incomplete Bonty OR. I ditched the 3x crank and bought a new to me 32 tooth 1x. It was more of an experiment to get back on a functional MTB but it rides well and quite honestly I might just leave it this way. I donā€™t ride the way I used too. Especially not on this.

Check the FB swap/sale pages for cycling and MTB. You can pick up an XT 1x10 or 2x10 drivetrain for under $100, and you don;t need new wheels or hubs.

I like your style :) My drop bar beast:

I like the setup. Love the Cannondale aluminum. In a micro etched cross section, under a microscope, the metal looks almost uniform through the whole joint. It has great grain structure.
I had the privilege of working for a small company that benchmarked metal structures in welded bicycle joints. I distinctly remember the mid 90s Cannondales.

Cool info! That definitely was a great time period for them.
 
Currently rocking this 1987 Trek. Iā€™ve had it a couple years. Super decent bike... I built it up for gravel touring and camping and to emulate my 26ā€ LHT that I regrettably sold when I thought I was going to be moving. Only thing I miss are the drop bars. Otherwise itā€™s perfect. I restored the biopace that had gotten smashed by something, other than that this bike was practically new old stock in some guyā€™s attic via craigslist.

Check out that sweet rear brake setup! Shark tooth! Works pretty well actually. 1987 was an ā€œinnovativeā€ year for Shimano.
