Ellis Cycles Custom Steel Canti Fork - NEW & Beautiful
****SOLD****
Hello!
Up for sale is a new fork that I had Ellis Cycles build for for me earlier this year. It was meant as a replacement for my 59cm '85 Trek 720 frame. That frame ended up having some other issues so I am moving on. This fork is gorgeous and Dave is an awesome guy so I'm super bummed I won't actually be able to use it. I paid a LOT more than my asking price so no lowballin'.
- Kirk Pacenti Artisan II Crown (50mm inside width)
- Columbus Tubing
- Suntour GS Dropouts
- 52mm Offset
- Crown race to QR axle: 37.94 cm
- Steerer Tube Length: 9.5"
- Steerer Tube Threads: 2.25"
- Designed for 17.78cm head tube
- 767 grams
- 700c Wheels
- 1" Steerer
$325/shipped

Yowza, that is nice! I saw Ellis and quickly clicked because I thought it might be a full frame and fork. That will probably be choice when I decide to get a custom build one day. Unfortunately I don’t have a fork less bike worthy of that one right now. Probably would be overkill on a Univega Ital Sport.

Pedal to the medal
it’s very tempting for a replacement of a trek 613 fork with the faulty crowns. I’ll need to take some measurements
