I recall someone with an early green Quickbeam had a failure where the seat

There are stories, but it’s hard to know. On the one hand, single speed frames
have to contend with a lot of forces, especially around the bottom bracket, and

There are stories, but it’s hard to know. Single speed frames have to contend

Reading about the construction flaws on this bike reminds me of a story /
gripe grant posted about in a reader around the time the QB was released.
someone made a stink about flaws in the bikes welding and grant told her it

What a stunning Quickbeam. Thumbs up on the BRG paint. Glad you were able to
get the distinctive QB down tube decal! The finishing touch.

Thanks y’all. Ryan, the BRG is stunning in person. Depending on the light, it

I've got a couple jealous 68's that are glad to be a few steps back from the
