Price on requestChrome bikes have their origins in the world of track cycling, where speed and style once went hand in hand. Track bikes were sometimes manufactured with chrome frames because of their unrivalled rigidity and durability, essential for the intensity of racing on a wooden track. In the process, the chrome not only gave the bike a unique shine, but also offered superior protection against rust and wear.
What makes this chrome road bike so exceptional is the fact that it can leave the track like this and go out onto the open road. This is a rare occurrence, as chrome bikes tend to have limited use in the specialised world of track cycling. Yet a few passionate craftsmen have taken up the challenge of translating the classic chrome style into a road bike.
Exclusivity in every detail: What makes this chrome road bike even more special is its exclusivity. With very limited production and special artisanal attention to detail, each chrome road bike has therefore become a unique work of art.

The number of chrome road bikes available is incredibly limited, giving only the most dedicated cyclists the chance to ride this rare beauty. This adds to the high exclusivity and prestige of this chrome road bike.
