Will give it a go Carrera Quattro Pro 1992, bought during lockdown Reynolds 531 Magnum e-stay frame Deore DX/XT mix.

And because it was built on the same assembly line as Saracen at the time, it was a guarantee, when it came out of the box, the reassembly was Perfect. Flawless even.

Unlike every Apollo they sold....(you could spend weeks, bending the bike back in shape to set it up properly).

Honestly mate they were up there with the Kili Saracens of there time, brilliant for the money too. Hot cakes for Halfords if im honest.

Thanks really enjoying it, when I was a kid my neighbour had first the Quattro which was stolen then bought one of the these, I had his old raleigh thunder road
 
The carrera is very striking! I like it a lot! And I concur - amber wall tyres black Seatpost and period saddle would top it off nicely!
