Electra Relic pic

I was playing around with a shot I took the other day of my Relic, trying to "warm" up the colours a bit, and accidentally tripped onto this effect - came out kind of cool:

It almost looks like oil on canvas. Cool.

Not trying to steal your spotlight, but here are a couple of my Relic that I had on the computer. I had the big one set as my wallpaper for a long time.

My favorite current production bike, easily.

Cheers!

Oh yeah - those are awesome, Blacksheep!

And Dr. T, unfortunately, it has been dropped from the Electra line. Glad I got mine just in time!

 

[Dr. Tankenstein]

DOH!

 

[Hammond Eggz]

Yeah, sad - one the coolest factory bikes ever made.

 

[Dr. Tankenstein]

I guess most people like their new bike to look, well, new. :roll:

 

[Hammond Eggz]

Yeah - sad, ain't it?

 

[Dr. Tankenstein]

Stinkin' yuppies! :wink: :wink:

I had to make a calendar using twelve different photoshop effects for my design class, and did it with my bikes.
I´ll post some months when I get home so you can see it guys.

Hi, I am from the UK and have just signed up so I can contribute to this forum. I have also got an Electra Relic .I got it for my 40th two years ago now. I love the bike and use it mainly for cruising along the seafront near where I live in Kent. I took a brief video of the bike some time ago and put it up on you tube . Here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at2l2_gmzNU My bike is still like new as Ive not done too many miles. I plan to keep it for ever because its timeless design looks very cool and in Britain there are very few cruiser bikes so it always gets a lot of attention without being too way out. The three speeds are better than I thought they would be and the bike goes pretty quick and manages most hills but of course it on the flat at slower speeds where its excels in comfort. I see reading your posts that they don't produce this model anymore which for me is good as it can only add to its rarity and value for the future.

Very cool - and welcome!
You've got a great bike there as a good start into our sickness! :mrgreen:
