It was the same when the looptail Quadangle was retro'd 7 years ago now (damn is it 7 years already?).
You had to decide whether it was think of the bike as an oldschool and put oldschool parts on or treat it as a modern bike and put modern parts on it.
When I built mine back then I found parts that looked oldschool but in fact were new.. Not a single OS part on this bike...

Seen a photo on Google of stu thomsen with his prototype so hoping to source similar parts n building a rep of it (well that's the plan) put it up on fb n got slated for it, I know it's not everybody's cup of tea but wanted a quad n this is the ultimate and as said earlier never gunna find one so we all make sacrifices on our builds ok I'm making the ultimate one but people buy new haro sports masters etc n no one says a thing n let's face it it's built to spec with right materials n probably better welds so I can live with it , thanks for the positive comments and also thanks to those who are reeling at the thought of it but say nothing :LolLolLolLol:
stidds:
It will be an interesting build Jono, good luck to you with it.
What you should do to make it look the part is get it painted in the colour you decide and then beat it a few times with a chain or the like to chip the paint and make it look worn. :LolLolLolLol:
That would look ace.

It was mentioned (not by me, but somebody on here recently) that somebody over in Australia has one but has said that it is an original and he has had it for years.
