    Anyone have info on a early Ellis Champion?

    I think it is the same frame but I did not get it from Hillary Stone. The pictures show a odd shaped paint chip on the upper head lug. Mine has the exact shaped one but it has been touched up. And a few others.

    I decided to replicate my dream bike

    I went on a 30 mile ride yesterday. Ìt was very stable and handled well. It seems to handle better the faster you go. I'm very happy with it.

    Exactly, paint can't stick since chrome is to smooth to have a mechanical bond and will eventually come off.

    I decided to replicate my dream bike

    Disk wheels look cool but if there is any side winds it feels like rear steering. It has a Brooks saddle right now but that might change.

    I had a day off today so I put it together and rode it around the block a couple times to get everything adjusted. Feels good so far. How do you all like it?

    I put the replica decals on tonite. I think it adds a lot to the look of the frame. It sure looks black when it's not in the sunlight.

    Ok, I have finally painted it. I couldn't find a color I really wanted to use. I wanted something dark like a maroon but not black. Finally decided on a dark purple but the cost was outrageous. Dodge makes one called "hellraisin" but it was $225.00 for a pint of base coat! So I went with black...
