Title: 91' Elf Doublecross
Post by: CustardLips on October 21, 2014, 10:57 PM: A few pics of my Elf since I've had it. Now retired from the track to a life of pub crawls in various towns and cities in the north west. :LolLolLolLol:

This is as it stands at the minute. Got some Derringer ll hubs to go on it and maybe a GT twin bolt seat clamp. Not sure about the Comp 3's though... think I prefer dirt monsters on it. :)

It's big so I thought it would be better to ride. Maybe I just haven't given it a beasting yet.
Still, it saves on breaking the expensive stuff :daumenhoch:

Post by: CustardLips on March 04, 2015, 02:29 PM: Primo Dirtmonsters, GT twin bolt seat clamp and mx99 lever now fitted. Happy with this for now until i build my GT pro then I'll have to pinch the GT hubs off it. ::)
I'll fit some black ones when the time comes... probably make it look more complete. :)

Post by: CustardLips on June 03, 2016, 06:24 PM: Made a few changes to the Elf. Thought it was as good as finished before but a nice Araya/Bullseye wheelset popped up on here... an Elf zip back post and an Italia Turbo seat popped up on ebay. So thought I'd give it a makeover... hope you like it as much as i do. :daumenhoch:

:daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

Know what yer saying Ben... not keen on too much colour meself but that's the only seat (tried a few others) I've fitted that looks right on the seat post so had to get grips to match. ??? Otherwise they'd have been black. :daumenhoch:
