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  :daumenhoch:



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  :daumenhoch:

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

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  :daumenhoch:

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 .
