Even Euro bike makers who still make the traditional bike also manufacture their modern counterparts, not too dissimilar to the Breezer bikes.
Maybe for looks alone. But the Breezer is more efficient with its great frame and a more aggressive geometry, allowing you to travel at higher speeds than the more traditional styles. Plus it's about 10 pounds lighter. Mild steel is heavy and inefficient.
