Element Troy

I have a used Element Troy 10, there is a tiny bit on UTube about them from Indonesia and Singapore but I have never seen another one in the US, (at least in my tiny part of it), and wonder if anyone on here has one. It's a nince bike and I am happy with it

The Troy is the poor man's Gust, selling for around $300 here in Indonesia. They are a great value, though the frameset itself is not as good as a FnHon Gust in terms of the paint and weld finish. And, obviously, one can spec a Gust build to one's exact desire from the get-go.

USD 1 = IDR 15,500

Note that there are two diameters for 16" tires, 305 mm and 349 mm. The 16-inch designation is a nominal size only. There is a two-inch difference. I don't think you can find them that large for 349 mm rim. Not sure which rim size is on your bike. So if yours has 305 tires, then you may be able to swap them.
