Some more details of the #BrauCycles folding #Cargobike (looks like a #Brompton crossed with an #Omnium) exhibited at #SPEZI2023, especially for @maybeabattist ☺ #SPEZI23 #SPEZI

@xtaran @maybeabattist I think the designer got inspiration from this old poster – in all seriousness, this construction is what makes #spezi such a delightful event

@lars: That looks a lot like a retro-fake as it sports the name of the designer: #BrauCycles 😁

@xtaran @maybeabattist I tend to believe it’s a René Herse situation: enthusiast buys historic brand name and then pushes the boundaries of engineering, creativity, and economic sanity 🙃

@lars: Interesting idea. Didn't think of that. But this case I suspect that #BrauCycles poster is a photoshop (or gimp) job of this #CyclesCéler poster: https://www.ebay.com/itm/154013439599 (Wasn't able to copy and paste the picture on the phone.)

@xtaran @maybeabattist looks like it. But the quality of the print job made me wonder - it felt like there was more to it than just copy and paste. So kudos to the artist and #BrauCycles for their attention to detail
