I have a lightly used 29er Kona King Kahuna 19" frame and a newly installed Ritchey WCS carbon fork (never had a brake mounted to it) for sale. It's a killer bike for rigid mountain biking, bikepacking and gravel riding. The effective top tube is right around 23". The frameset includes a Cane Creek headset (the fork is a straight 1 1/8" but the head tube will also work with tapered forks) and a Dura-Ace bottom bracket spaced to Shimano mtb width. Seatpost diameter is 31.6mm and I'll also include a spacer to run a 27.2mm seatpost. The frame is made from Scandium and I believe was built for the Kona pro mountain bike team (the awesome orange wasn't otherwise offered). A threaded bottom bracket, post mount (160mm w/o adapter) brake mount, 2 bottle mounts and fender mounts make this a very versatile frame. I rode the frame on several occasions then slapped on the Ritchey fork with a project in mind that didn't pan out. I'm not interested in separating the frame and fork. Fork retails for $500 and the frame is worth at least that, even despite the small scratches (see photo of bb yoke). Asking $650 + shipping for my bikepacking buddies here.

-19" frame (approximately 23" effective top tube length)
-73mm threaded bottom bracket
-head tube will take tapered or straight steerers (1 1/8" straight steerer on Ritchey fork)
-2 bottle mounts
-160mm post mount rear
-fender mounts on frame
-31.6mm seatpost, adapter for 27.2mm post included
-Cane Creek headset and Shimano Dura-Ace bb included
-QR front and rear (no thru axles)
-newly installed Ritchey WCS carbon fork has never been ridden. Steerer is 20cm long with 5.7cm exposed above headset.
