1984 ELF Mini
This is a beautiful example of ELF Bicycles race bikes from the early days of the company, it is no wonder some of the fastest riders chose these Southern California built BMX bikes.
This is an amazing state of the art old-school ELF race bike from the 80's. It includes period correct old-school parts, including original grips, pads and tires. ELF, which stands for Extra Light Frames, lives up to their name with this bike. With the chromoly Frame/Fork, Aluminum and Titanium parts this bike weighs around 14 pounds, which is still considered light in today's standards. The builder of this bike appeared to get creative and used some European road bike parts to help reduce weight.
