Re your collection very cool. The cycle trucks are amazing
 
Ooooo dang is that a quad angel bro [emoji1303][emoji1303]
It is a tribute bike to SE Racing's STR-1 (Stu Thomsen Racing) in '77...which was the precursor to the quadangle. What makes this different than other quads, is that the downtubes start at the headtube, wrap under the bracket, around the looptail, and back up to the top-ish tube :confused:...some very long chunks of cromo :grin:

I love the bike...it is only the third bike I've ever gotten new, and it was a total impulse buy when I stumbled across the pre-sale on planet bmx.

edit - just realized I lied :crazy:. I have three other new bikes in boxes that I haven't assembled...I can't claim senior moment, cuz I haven't even hit 50 yet, so I guess that leaves early onset alzheimers :shake:? To be fair, they aren't assembled, so they aren't really bikes...and two are from wally-world, they don't count...do they :)?

Killer looking bike sometimes them impulse buys work out . I didn't exactly thing a true quad being it was a 26" think the quad was only 20" . Great frame for sure [emoji1303]

I tried to buy one of these, but they're sold out. Really hot bike you got there...

Thanks! Its a cool cruiser...big & brutish, but I did manage to catch air a few times on the local overgrown bmx track :happy:.

There are some quality issues that aren't super-great...but, I have other modern SE products, so I knew what to expect. Still wasn't easy to pay big bucks for some china quality parts (bumpy chrome and grind marks on the bars...top tube pad doesn't fit well...squeaky brake pads...some undercut on some of the welds...and on my last ride, the 'redline' crank arm loosened up :(). Its got mounds of coolness & style, though, and rides like a dream :bigsmile:!
