quad 96 hour transformation
« on: March 15, 2012, 09:22 PM »
went up to see daz kap last saturday had a fantastic time seeing what hes up to and came away with this

whilst driving back in the car had some ideas about getting it chromed so sunday in the garage with a crate of stella started to work on it


decided to remove the lugs with a big lump hammer and sthill saw and stripped the gorgeous red  :idiot2: and black from the forks


de lugged stripped ready for white powder, i decided against the chrome because of the time it would take to get done


ill call in the powder coaters in the morning
absolute result i get there and he tells me hes doing the colour i want i help him load it in and he tells me collect it tuesday morning
pick it up all done

put some bits on it


big thank you to dazzler absolute delight to meet

I still have the gold fluted seat post and 44t chainring that came with it new if you are interested.

I was gonna do it se blue, remove the lugs, fit a pit bull on the chainstays with a threaded adjuster low down on the seat tube. I just fell out with it before it started. was the only frame I have managed to manual with any sort of control!!

Looking good now, never did like the black/red/gold colour way, I bought it to get me rolling when my fleet got nicked last year.

This was how I had it.
