Ellsworth Specialist's have been around for ages. (check the movie JIB) thought they where out of production. It would be great see them come back they looked so damn nice.
As for the Salsa El-Mariachi its very nice looking. Those Crank Brothers Cobalts look the business. haha don't think i could even get my leg over that.
So hot, I love that paint job on it. Just looked up website, its limited to 100 frames worldwide, you won't want to scratch it.
On the website it says the LE is single speed specific whereas theres no mention on that on the stock el mariachi. So besides paint job and cool stem, what else differs?
Got a specs list?
I'm interested to see what parts the importer uses :D
