For our non Aussie members, here's a little more info.

The Quicksilver 'Team' was Competition Development's first factory race model & was the production version of the four [approx] hand made frames for the factory team riders. This is why the writing under the Quicksilver name on the sticker says "Factory Replica Frame"

These production frames first saw the light of day in December 1979
It has been estimated that somewhere between 120 & 150 were made
Six examples have been documented as current day survivors, of which this [serial 50] is one.
One more example needs to be verified before being conclusively inclided in the survivor list
They seem never to have been advertised in magazines or sales brochures.
This is the model that the factory sponsored riders across the country gained their fame.
It's also the model that brought Quicksilver to national prominence.

To be saved from an unjust fate at the last moment is extremely fortunate as it will now bask in the historic glory that it so richly deserves.

Very cool bike,reminds me of the professor riding a team quicksilver at a Sydney track 82/83 he was also on a tv commercial doing a rock walk.

Don't know if it was raced but a few more have been found bringing the total to about 11 & so far the highest serial is close to 100, so we may have to eventually revise the production estimate downward.

For me these are the Holy Grail of Quickie models & I have spent considerable effort [& money] finding & securing the two that I now have.

Yaaaaay Team!
