Can the Flying Flea's design be too radical for traditional Royal Enfield fans?
Royal Enfield has kept a reputation of making classic, retro styled bikes that appealed to enthusiasts who love the looks and feel of the bike being vintage. But the new Flying Flea is a completely different proposition, with its futuristic, minimalist design. As always, the debate rages between REs about just how far removed this is from RE's usual aesthetic. It’s either a bold move that proves RE’s ability to innovate or it strays too far from our heritage, some say. The original WWII Flying Flea inspired the design, which has a unique frame, unconventional suspension, and a stripped down look that no other RE in the lineup has. At a time like this, when they turn everything upside down, the question is that do they risk alienating their core fanbase to get to younger markets or to new markets, and do they do so by risking diluting the brand rather severely in some ways?
RE taking risks is pretty awesome, I think. The Flying Flea is sick and I can tell they're not stuck in the past.
