Back on the road 11 April 2012 <br /> <br /> Ellis Briggs, founded in 1936, remains family owned (third generation) and still in the framebuilding business in Shipley (Yorkshire), England and has built custom frames for many of Britain’s top cyclists over the years including Ken Russell (who won the 1952 Tour of Britain on an EB machine), Bernard Burns, Beryl Burton, Brian Robinson, Arthur Metcalfe, Doug Petty, Danny Horton and Dave Rayner.<br /> <br /> This is one of their “Favori” brand frames, the Italianate name adopted in the 1950s reflecting the increasing Continental influence in British cycling at the time. Name aside, it's very much a classic British time trialling frame in design and finish with stiff 74 parallel angles, short top tube and chainstays and high bb. The Davis sloping crown fork, “fastback” seat stays and extensive chrome give it a 1960s flavour despite its build date. <br /> <br /> Obtained from the original owner as a frameset in excellent, wholly original condition with its striking salmon and cream paintwork, this was a well-used but well cared for machine. Evidently, this was repainted by Ellis Briggs in its present colour in the early 1980s as the build sheet (kindly provided by Paul at Ellis Briggs) shows it was originally finished in Flam Green with Polychromatic Champagne head tube and seat tube bands.<br /> <br /> This has been fitted out with a mix of some of the choicest of "weight weenie" components c. 1978-84: Campagnolo Super Record titanium pista pedals and rear derailleur, Pino Moroni skewers, OMAS titanium bb, Stronglight delrin headset and Sakae Rinkyo’s “superlight” stem and seat pillar as well as some real Alf Enger style drilled out bits including the chainring (even the teeth have been drilled!), brake levers and calipers to give a very light and lively mount weighing in at just under 18 lbs. <br /> <br /> Frame/Fork<br /> Material: Reynolds 531 double butted<br /> Braze ons: gear cable stop on chainstay, single cable guide on driveside bb top shell, Saba top tube brake cable clips and down tube bottle cage bosses <br /> Drop outs: Campagnolo vertical TT rear and Campagnolo front<br /> Bottom bracket: <br /> Finish: original salmon with cream seat tube panel and bands outlined in gold, white lug lining.
