Re: [Quantum Owners] Gear Change

2017-05-31 Thread Dave English 
Hi Mark

The difference that counts is the distance from the centre of the quadrant 
(the middle of the hole) to the bit that the cable sits on. When this 
radius is bigger, the cable moves further for the same angular movement of 
the pedal and the bite point will be a bit further away from the floor.

If I remember correctly, the standard quadrant has a 50mm radius and the 
Escort one has a 55mm radius. (It might be 55mm and 60mm). This is why my 
modified one had bolts going through it, they just lifted the cable up a 
bit.

Visually, look from the end where the cable sits and it is further away on 
the Escort quadrant. Also it's black instead of white but don't rely on 
that, I've also had a smaller one that was black.

Hope this helps.

Dave

Is there any play in the pedal before it picks up the cable?

Mine has, I've worked out the red bearing washers on the pedal box have worn 
out.

I watched a video on Facebook a couple of years ago of a Westfield going up in 
flames and all the guy could do was stand and watch it. Must have been 
heartbreaking. I bought an extinguisher soon after that.
