Eroica.
The pre 1987 steel framed glory steed.
Eroica.
Now, let’s get one thing clear… I LOVE a classic bike. They are the perfect marriage between form and function and the colour combos on the old paint jobs are to die for. I ride a steel frame racer and its honestly the greatest thing. I love it.
I thought I would try and do a stripped down more minimalist version of the classic frame shape but get a bit abstract with the wheels and the features. (If we are being truly picky, a true Eroica era bike would have the gear shifters on the down tube but I always preferred bar end shifters. It also would have actual wheels instead of ethereal light swirls.. Sorry. Geek out in full flow now…. I’ll leave.)
