Carrera Quattro Comp Reynolds 531 with XT on Facebook

Yeah, the ride is ‘of its time’ I would say.

It’s definitely not got the original saddle or tyres. The original saddle on the GT was a riveted affair and the tyres would have been Farmer Johns Cousins.

Does anyone know why there are two types of Quattro Comp GT frames out there - lugged and 'unlugged'??

The 1990 Comp is lugged and came with U brake while the 1991 Comp GT was without lugs and came with cantis. Not sure if it was lugged to add strength due to running the U brake. Maybe the more engineer minded might know.
