Order / Fabrication
Once the design is finalized, the approval is given and the frame will be built up.
Then nothing more but to wait for about 1 month for the frame to be ready.
Graphics
I had some time to think over the graphics, but mostly squandered my time not actually doing up the logos themselves.
Inspiration came from some bikes.
I even played with the idea of having the words in Tengwar ( LOTR Elvish ) and went as far as downloading and reading up on how to use the font.
In the end, I decided on a few ideas I have had playing in my head for a while.
A pseudo bike brand "element 22" which is the element number for Titanium.
Short form of the brand would be a "e22" the play of the "e" on Cervelo and "22" from No22 bikes.
A gear icon would form the basis for the logo on the seat tube.
I wanted a few other elements to make the bike my own, so added the logo on the top with "element 22" and the bike name "Sojourn" on the top tube.
Topped that off a dragon motiff to symbolize the typical things dragons are associated with Exotic, strength, toughness, - a forge in fire aspect of the material..
Finished it all off with a signature on the top tube front right.
