My latest addition to my 1970s British time trial collection: a 1978 Favori "Concord" by Ellis Briggs.
This was purchased from the original owner on eBay (UK) and outfitted in period correct c. 1978-83 (it was apparently repainted in its present colour by EB around 1983) "weight weenie" and Alf Engers' style drilled out components. Tips the scales at 17.9 lbs!
Full details and lots more photos here for those interested:
