Elysium - 'Heaven' to the Roman (and roamin') Legions. This custom-drawn titanium frame is Nirvana for the cross-country purist. Built one at a time, by Chris, to order in our Vancouver fabrication facility, each frame is constructed from 3/2.5 American titanium (not "chitanium", like so many others), and custom Paragon Machine Works BB shells and 6/4 drop-outs. These works of rideable art also feature a unique 6061 Al and titanium version of Dekerf's famous interlocking monostay/wishbone design and have a hand-brushed finish. Formidable, lightning quick, all-conquering...Illegitimae Non Carborundum... Hail, Caesar!
