1985 SE Racing Quadangle [SOLD]

This is my first completed build of 2014, a baby blue 1985 SE Racing Quadangle with gold parts. The frame and unstamped Landing Gear were a Christmas present from my wife. I've added some NOS gold Shimano Tourney calipers, NOS DX levers, a mint Sugino Maxy Cross crank set with a Sugino bottom bracket, a Suntour 44T chain ring and an Izumi chain. I also picked up an NOS set of Skyway Tuff Graphite pedals with gold cages from a collector in New Zealand. The stem in a very nice 'Pat Pend' Tuf Neck and the headset is an NOS Hatta, both of which were imported from the US. The seat post is an NOS SR Laprade held in place by an NOS Tuf Neck seat post clamp, topped with a mint Elina Flyte Tech seat. The wheels are made up from a lovely set of Ukai shiny side gold rims, laced to NOS gold Shimano hubs. The Oakley B1B grips and Panaracer Knarler Knobby tyres are reissues from Oakley US and Natsukashi BMX in Japan. The build was finished with an NOS Haro Type 2 race plate and an NOS SE Racing Quadangle pad. I sold this bike in May 2014.
