New Disney movie-- what bike logo is this?
There is a new Disney/Pixar movie called "Luca" on Disney+.
Takes place in Italy. Italian director. One plot element is a triathlon/bike race.
Did they use a Schwinn logo?!

It bears a passing resemblance, but I doubt it's intentional. I'm sure that any studio is very careful about any logos that show up in a movie scene.

Schwinn, just different enough to avoid lawyers. That's got to be intentionally taking the p*ss. Reminds me of a screenshot I saw from Mulan which had a rocket with "danger" written in simplified characters. No way that whoever took the time to put that in didn't know that simplified wouldn't exist for another 1700 years. Similarly, a bike racer from the land of Cinelli, Colnago, and Bianchi? Gotta ride a Schwinn.

At least the bike looks to be steel, not carbon. That's progress, right?

Looks like Nervar lugs and fork crown...though it could be an early Japanese version.

I think it's just made to look like others from the vintage era. You could say it looks like a crescent headbadge with the colors reversed.
Here you go. I'm sure you can find some that look similar.

A nod to an old cycling rag whose name escapes me now. A contributing editor was Chuck U. Farley if that rings a bell.
