Hello everyone! This is my first post! Aloha from middle/northern Germany! I am looking forward to reading this Forum and showing you some of my stuff.
First of all, please don`t be scared! And please don`t throw tomatoes. In my recent project, I converted a beautiful 1996 KLEIN Quantum Race to a Speedbike which will serve me as kind of my "everyday" bike.
In my defence: Currently, I am owning several roadbikes from a 1984 Colnago Super, 1985 Pinarello Montello over to a 2010 Storck Scenario to 3 KLEIN Quantum (2 x Quantum Pro, 1x Quantum Race) and have been riding classical road handlebars for the last 8 years. Just for fun - as a hobby! No hard or regular sport workouts with them. Now, it was time for some variety - and a Speedbike.
KLEIN has always been one of my all time favorite brands and in the future I will sell some older stuff to concentrate more on the Quantum Models (1993-1997 only!) and try to find more of them for my collection.
In my following posts, I will show you my other projects such as the KLEIN Quantum Pro bike(s), since this is a retro forum.
