contents Let $\mathcal{OG}(4)$ denote the family of all graph-group pairs $(Γ, G)$ where $Γ$ is finite, 4-valent, connected, and $G$-oriented ($G$-half-arc-transitive). A subfamily of $\mathcal{OG}(4)$ has recently been identified as `basic' in the sense that all graphs in this family are normal covers of at least one basic member. In this paper we provide a description of such basic pairs which have at least one $G$-normal quotient which is isomorphic to a cycle graph. In doing so, we produce many new infinite families of examples and solve several problems posed in the recent literature on this topic. This result completes a research project aiming to provide a description of all basic pairs in $\mathcal{OG}(4)$.
