It’s my version of Yves Saint Laurent for bikes

I agree, I like the links. The whole kit would run the risk of being a bit ‘samey’ (a technical term I’m sure!) otherwise. It creates a bit of interest and seeing as you probably won’t wear it all the time on the bike, is a good thing. Kind of similar to a flamboyant lining on a classic suit jacket!

I like the chain links! They add a bit of whimsy that I think keeps the Elcyclista brand from seeming *too* serious (like some other black-and-pink high-end cycling brand I can think of sometimes comes off…;)

I saw a sample before I committed – I wasn’t sure initially, but they actually turned out pretty low key. They are going to link back to a style I am creating for a series of Elcyclista Journals, more to come on that, but it will all make sense when you see it together.

Really Stefan?

I like the chains. Agreed, the kit is beautiful in its simplicity. The chains are on the side panel and I doubt that they will get as much focus in real life as you see in the rendering.

To avoid confusion…I am not the same Derek that posted above.

good, but the chains are too much for the nice and simple ELcyclista design.
