Rikulau Premium Grade Chromoly Road/Touring Bike – Elegance
Rikulau has been working with chromoly steel since the early stage of the establishment. But, our existing products have been focusing on road racing purposes. However, chromoly is actually a material very suitable for long distance riding. Therefore, when Rikulau released a newly developed premium grade CrMo steel tubing, we decided to use it on our first long distance road bike. 

The design of Elegance takes both racing and long distance riding into consideration. Heat treated down tube and chain stays provide better pedaling efficiency; elongated head tube releases stress on the back during long rides; and longer chain stays and rear rack bosses offer more stable ride and possible light touring uses. All the design features combined with material characteristics ensure Elegance play its role responsibly and competently. 

Features of Elegance: 
1. Tubing: Raw tube from quality-oriented Nippon Steel (Japan). Precision extrusion processes done in Taiwan
2. Heat treatment: down tube and chainstays heat treated to increase the material strength, and thus, pedaling efficiency
3. longer chain stays and rear rack bosses: Promenade can be used as a road racing bike or a light touring bike
4. Semi-sloping top tube to increase leg room
 
Elegance
“Elegance” depicts street casual design that follows Minimalism style. Simple separation and soft color choices differ tremendously from flamboyant, complicated and exaggerated designs found on those in the market. Instead of emphasizing the visibility and penetration of the design itself, “Elegance”focuses more on the simple and gentle overall visual aesthetics. It tries to add some softness to the already tense city life.

Rikulau Premium Grade CrMo Steel
Released in 2013, Rikulau Premium Grade CrMo steel tubeset is the newest addition to Rikulau family. The raw material, however, is from the renowned Nippon Steel (Japan). Precision extrusion, heat treatment and all other processes are done in Taiwan to assure the precision required by Rikulau. The new tubeset is still a 4130 CrMo, but it behaves very differently from its close relatives. And, the frame built with it is, of course, beyond comparison.
