Nothing real special here, built for fun not for show. The f/f and most of the parts were rescued after years in my mom's basement.

I stripped the frame bare and repainted it in its original white. New sticker kit - missing the triangle stickers.
chrome 7x rims with gt sealed hubs - which are shedding their chrome but are still smooth as butter
fredz (with original sticker !)
tnt xl stem
pitbull
GT Power Series cranks
XCII pedals with urchins
pro neck chainring
comp 3s
dk seat and primo post
pozi stop clamp

Anybody got the triangle stickers ? I'd also love to rebuild these wheels with a set of bullseye hubs like I had bitd - blue preferably.

b.

Don't try and downplay whats going on here. Don't even try. Nice and tight.....Me likes

Nice build - with some Power Series cranks that will be a dope rider...

Nice!!! This seat would look fresh - elf seat

Sweet! stick with the one piecers though just to be different.

I have a feeling this won't be my first project so they'll go on something else later. (I'm trying to get in touch with the guy that I sold my brian foster painted cyclecraft cruiser to many moons ago...)

I'm going to hook this bike up like the 20" elf I raced when I was 13-14. When I got power series cranks the elf was the first frame I had them on.

Heres what I need to make it more correct -
- dk stem
- powerlite bars
- blue bullseyes laced to black 7x rims
- I *might* paint the forks white.

Got the Gt cranks yesterday - they were a little rough but after a few hours of work they look nearly new from a short distance. New pic shortly.

With the GT cranks and rehabed xcII pedals w/urchins

Do you or anyone else know anything about a Todd Blazer model ELF? I have one from 1985 era here as a frame and fork. I was selling it but no one wanted it so im going to repowder it yellow and most likely build it...

Were the Elf Seatposts popular? I picked one up on a bike i bought and it's definately different looking!

Nice bike!

SparkSVT - I've seen you trying to sell that frame on ebay. I guess there isn't good demand for elf stuff cause one that old is pretty rare.
Is there anything that defines it as a todd blaser model ? unique serial number or something ?

I dont know. In fact I CANT find a serial number on it anywhere...anyone???

i wanted to buy that frame, but im trying to hold out and find one like the blue one above!! does anyone know any different colors that the came in be sides yellow?

Thats the only yellow elf I've ever seen.

The late 80's colors I've seen are chrome, white, baby blue and black - I think thats all.

Cool Cruiser. The decals look good. Glad they worked out. Just finished getting my decals on.

Take a look. By the way, I have it in the For Sale section.

nice elfs i like to see nice ones i have the aluminum double cross 20 frame built if you go to rockford 06 you will see it there very lite bike might weight in at 20 will try to post pic later
