Elvira- Custom Elgin

[Bri-in-RI]

Ive had my eye on this baby for a LONG time now and finally was able to work a deal with the previous owner. She was built buy a local industrial artist and bike enthusiast that is also one of our own- RRB member fsjaak! I have not been this excited about purchasing a bike in a very long time...and as most of you know I buy a LOT of bikes :mrgreen:

What's that Rod-thing along the top bar, above the tank.

That is the custom made 3-speed shifter. Cable guides were brazed on and the cable was run through black plastic tubing for a clean look. On the shifter as you slide it forward the bolt alternates up down up. In this pic it is shown down in second gear.
