Title: Quadangle build started.
Post by: Del on March 18, 2007, 11:08 AM

Got my Quad F&F back from the powder coaters yesterday so seeing as the weather is crap decided to start it.
I wasn't going to put black tuffs on this but I think the black with the blue tyres is quite cool, bit of a break from mainly blue parts, what do you all think?

The seat clamp does look shite backwards but it works better as the slot is at the front (why did they do that?) I may put it back to normal I just dont want to have to tighted the clamp too much.
I've just fitted the brakes/lever and cables, I'm waiting for a 44T chainring (40T is on that at the mo) then its more or less finished after I fit the pedals and chain

Not sure, I guess that makes sense though. ive put the seat clamp the other way and its tightened it quite well so now it looks even better :)
