the Kona distributer changed. I guess they just bought all the stock the old distributer had in their warehouse.

seems a bit odd to be offering 50% off frames from 2 years ago, and 50% off frames from 11 years ago.

Odd. No mention of the shock in the 3 FS bikes I've just looked at. And it's greyed out in the picture too.

Buyer beware?

OMITN, Agreed, those carbon Kulas are luvvverly 🙂

Those Curtis Freeride frames look nice too - £200 for a UK handbuilt steel frame with a lifetime guarantee, that originally cost 750 quid? Bargain!

If I'd not just sold all the stuff off my old 456 Summer Season I'd be buying a Racelite or SuperX (my old mk1 SuperX was one of the best bikes I've ever had). As it happens I've just finished building my Dialled Love/Hate but even so, f*ck it, I've just bought an impulse purchase Curtis S1!

If you use code UK15 you get another £15 off at the checkout.

or there's the £50 voucher if you spend over £100 offer to but that requires a further £100 spend to access.

Seems to have become the owner of a Curtis 😳

You must have mis-read - all their frames (apart from the MX24) are for proper sized wheels? 😉

I'm waiting for the mail apologising to say someone made a mistake and they're not meant to be £199.
