Looks good! I like the red / green colors.
1999 Stinky Deelux
I'm new to this thread ( the post your Kona section doesnt work, so I'll post this here.)
Hello.
Its a new yet old Stinky Deelux that I purchased from Cambriabike. The frame is

I have a fondness for Kona's of that era. I had a 2001 Caldera until a couple of years ago when the head tube went south on me (cracked). All of the components were in pretty good shape. I lucked out and found a slightly older Kona frame on ebay, transferred the components and came up with this:
