Another Quad Finished ... at long last !!!

I've been after a 4130 Quad for some time and finally managed to buy a frame from 'general lee' ... thanks Steve
The frame was powdered by 'Superbikedan' and the finish is totally amazing
All I had to do was build it and as always I applied loads of old school flavour. So far I'm pleased with the final result though I may get the forks powdered in the near future ... what d'ya reckon
SPEC
4130 Quadangle with new retro Landing Gear forks - serial # QA90317
SE Racing Crow bars (original condition)
Tuf Neck Pro Model stem (restored)
Tange 125 headset (original condition)
A'me Round grips
Dia Compe MX900 calipers (restored) with DC cables and generic Tech III levers
Genuine SE Racing Camo pad set
Kashimax Aero seat
Odyssey seat post
Tuf Neck seat clamp (restored)
Skyway Tuff II's (restored)
Panaracer Knarler Knobby 20x1.75 tyres
Twin pinch 175mm Redline Flights
Sugino chainring
Sugino crank spider
Shimano DX pedals (restored)
Hope you like
Steve

That's the nicest quad build I've seen
And yes - chrome forks on a painted frame are the way to go. Glad you're gonna keep it that way
