84 SE Quad - RACE SET UP 13.3.13 PICS Page 5

[Pioneer]

Yes loving the build

[Jaan]

Any body got any pix ? I've never seen this comparison .

Yup I have, as you can clearly see the platform extends much further than a standard freestyle Quad 

tell me, how do you know it's an FB Quad ?

The way to tell is the rear platforms actually go right to the axle slots - manufacturing blunder as I understand it.  I need to see a better pic as I think its a regular Quad Freestyle. Did I pass? 

Yup correct, it's easy for folk to get "told" it's an FB but the reality is often different 

Is that your FB Ash? I'm tempted to do a crazy zebra stripe if it turns out to be a legit FB.

thats not mine, the zebra stripe Bloods look cool. A bloke on the museum did one last year and it was ace.

Added a few more parts:

Mint black A'me grips
NOS black double clamp DC seat post clamp
NOS Chrome seatpost
Mint Black Elina lightning bolt saddle
Swapped the chrome chainring for a NOS black machine toothed Sugino chainring

Once again apologies for the naff iPhone photos...

Wll I've just been chatting with Fred Blood and he's confirmed to me that the FB freestyle Quad not only had different standers but also a steeper head tube angle

Useful connection. I've been offered a standard.  Still a very nice frame set but I might start sending out some feelers Stateside for a genuine FB - one can but try.

Good luck with that, those that have them certainly know what they are. If you need any help I can always ask I few people I know to sell theirs

I'd love a fb quad !!! 

My blue quad has a one piece crank and I love it and wouldn't change it one bit . I am building one with all the bling bits on but my first quad will always be the best .
