In a shocking development, Elswick Cycles has been taken over by a group of hot Asian assassins bent over on world domination.
Their diabolical, three-pronged plan is to make the guys 1) blog more, 2) release new parts, and 3) update their website with a new design where all the pages work perfectly.
Oh, the humanity!
The patent leather-clad killers have demanded that Robert and Jamie remind their XS650 hardtail customers that for less than $250 they will clean up the neck of the original frame while adding a slick custom rake like the photo below.
Ship them your original frame, specify the hardtail and the rake you want, and for about $600 you can have a complete frame for your XS650 project.
That’s the hot Asian assassin way, and you like it!
So does Elswick Cycles, makers of fine American made metric bobber and chopper parts.
Make sure to tell them bikerMetric sent you to get these deals!
[UPDATE 02.29.12: it is apparent that elswick cycles are no longer in business. the sites who used to sell their products no longer do, their flakebook and blog pages haven’t been updated in a year, and i’ve heard a few stories from folks who purchased things to never see them arrive. i do not know what happened and took elswick’s banners down four months ago. now i am leaving this update on all their pages. i sincerely apologize to anybody who read great things about them here but were eventually ripped off. i know what that is like. what i got from them was great and it saddens me to see they disappeared, taking money along the way. peace out, metric mofos.]
