The 32h Suzues laced to Arayas are indeed the original Riv build. My green Quickbeem had them also.

Thanks for the info. Mine came with the Suzue hubs laced to Araya rims. Would this have been a Riv offering or do think the hubs were rebuilt on different rims? The hubs are the quick release type.

The unique parts were the wheels: a special Suzue hubset based on their Promax track hubs, but quick-release rather than bolt on and with singlespeed freewheel threading on both sides of the hub rather than the common fixed/free or fixed/fixed configurations, laced to Mavic MA3 rims (?). The crankset was the normal sugino XD triple but setup with 32 and 40 tooth chainrings and a chain guard in the outermost position. Brakes were old-style Shimano canti's with smooth-post pads. Congrats on the QB. I just built up a NOS second-run (orange) QB and I love it! On Monday, August 27, 2012 12:42:24 PM UTC-7, tragicallyaverage wrote: Howdy. New to this group. I bought a first generation Quickbeam (green, canti) and was wondering if this was originally sold as a separate frame or a complete package - if a complete bike, which parts did it originally come equipped with?
