I have a first or second-run green Quickbeam that has been my main ride for the last 15 years. I stopped commuting to work in 2020 and sort of got out of the habit of riding for fun, but I've recently decided I want to get back into it.
I've had the frame repainted twice already, and it is in need of another one. I'm trying to decide now whether to: a) sell the frame as-is and get a Roaduno b) repaint the frame and rebuild it (maybe in a new color) I've spoken to Will and he says he prefers the ride of the Roaduno to the Quickbeam, but I'm still not sure exactly *why*. Does anyone have any intel or thoughts on how it compares? I should say that I do ride the QB fixed, and I am aware the Roaduno is problematic as a fixie, but I am not worried about that, since I use short cranks (150mm) and fat tires (43mm). Also: Would anyone be interested in a 56 Quickbeam frameset, should I decide to sell? I can't imagine I could recoup the cost of refinishing it and still make enough to cover some of the cost of a new frame. - Andrew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
