To build or not to build.... that is the question :-\.
Ok. I bought this beautifull frame and fork set of Jai at MK this year. As most of you will know, from my RANT on the MK10 thread, I bought this primerally to stop Mr B from getting his grotty hands on it. I've had a couple of n.o.s frame and fork sets in my time but I must admit this one has slowly got a BIG grip on me.
So as the title says...........To build or not to build, that is the question. Do I hang this beauty up as it is or build it up..... ???
Comments please.
Many thanks.
Si. :)

For me i have a built up quad so i would just hang the frameset ............Dont build
-
i had one a few years ago, same as, built it, didnt feel it, and stripped it and sold it straight away.
cant see it being worth brewsters in the future, so i'd build it if you think you can do it justice ( which no doubt you can :daumenhoch:)

Thanks dear...... Its just hard init as they are....Virgins. Factory built and painted SE Racing Quadangle Freestyler built in 1984..
It isnt about the money with this frame and fork set as Jai sold it to me at such a reasonable price but this is 26 years old and has'nt had a headset or bottom bracket penetrate its powder, unlike me at 13 years old!!!! Dirty little c*nt. :2funny:
-
Build it and ride the fooker as it was destined.......
-
You do what feels right I built my NOS streetbeat and don't regret it but I have never ridden her :daumenhoch:
-
build it
-
i wouldnt build it in my humble opinion :daumenhoch:
-
its got to be built. white bars , blue parts :daumenhoch: or you could always sell for some one else to build? as long as the big B dont get it. :2gunsfiring_v1:
-
Build it, ride it, wreck it, strip it, re-coat it, build it, ride it and so one and on :daumenhoch:
-
Build it :daumenhoch:
I got this from under the nose of Biagio ::) i had asked Nick (Gashead) for a price on one but Jai hadn't fully set up and opened, so when he did open Biagio went straight to Jai and said he wanted a race and freestyle set and he was about to get the only race version till Nick went over and said "Snav has first dib dobs on that as he asked first" :4_17_5:
It's now with Dan getting a new colour as the paint is shocking :shocked:

its lasted this long as unbuilt,so just hang it up,buy a used one if you want to ride one...
as old school gets older an unbuilt one will be the one to own.

It's a bike frame and fork; so build it and ride it :daumenhoch:

x2 regret building my nos f&f sets. think the quad looks better just as a f&f anyway :-\
-
build it :daumenhoch:
you wont hurt its value too much, and would get a top bike,
anyone that bought one of those white quads, i reckon should go with white frame fork, with red component combo, (remember seeing a white / red quad on saturday superstore years ago),
but if your not sure, stick it back in the cubboard or on the wall until your ready,

Thank f*ck for that.... I thought greedy pig face got em all apart from my one, good work my friend. I'm still torn after all the comments. Its not a "put it away and in 20 years time it'll be worth" thing, i'll never sell any of my bikes, its just that virgin thingy and I hav'nt got any virgins at all. Hmmmmmmm to build or not to build................... :-\
