Wowzers!
Where did you get to see the Quattro S1 from this close? That car is mythical!

One of the 20 homologation cars is in Finland also, but it’s in a private car museum.

Still think you should have got it in the 6r4 colours.

Hats off to anyone who makes bike in the Citroen BX4TC colours

Bad photo, but shaved 49 grams with color-matching Carbon-Ti axles. Now 8080g with pedals.



Campagnolo Ekar crank boots and chainstay protector have been replaced with carbon/kevlar motorsports tape.

I'm blown away! WOW!!

^Thanks!

Here's a build list with weights:


I'm very happy with the bike after several thousand kilometers. It's stiff, precise, agile and comfortable, a true gravel superbike that makes my other gravel bikes feel uninspiring to ride.

Love the Kevlar tape, that finish is all over cars from this era. A great touch!

Great attention to detail. Love the crown on the downtube and various "sponsor" names on the bike

^ Yes that's a really nice video, for some reason YouTube already recommended it to me a while ago.

Henry Catchpole is also a cyclist BTW, and I exchanged some messages about my bike with him too...

Making the bike lighter with Far Sports FS36/32 wheels on DT240 EXP hubs while waiting for the snow to melt…

Weight is now 7,6 kg as pictured.

I will keep the Shamals for smoother surfaces with GP5000TL 32mm
