MUMBAI: Hercules Roadeo boasts of stylish steel and alloy designer frames that make it the preferred choice of the young guns today. To further demonstrate this, TI Cycles has rolled out a campaign that establishes the dominant positioning of Hercules Roadeo.
With the underlying message of ‘Never Challenge a Roadeo’, the campaign – conceptualized and created by Lowe Lintas Chennai, describes the attitude of the youth when they are posed with a challenge and how they don’t just overcome it, but do so with style.
The campaign idea has been derived based on the insight of 8-14 yrs. old urban boys, who strive to be better than their friends and peers and be the ‘coolest’ one in their group.
Commenting on the new campaign, TI Cycles of India president Arun Alagappan said: “We needed our brand Roadeo to keep up with the ever changing consumer and look cool and contemporary. It needed to connect and engage emotionally with the teenage boy of today, thus the new brand thought of ‘Never Challenge a Roadeo’ was born. Credit goes to the team from Lowe Lintas Chennai for understanding the mandate and delivering creatively with an exciting new thought that is sure to resonate with the new-age Roadeo consumer.”
Sharing his thoughts on the creative execution behind the campaign, Lowe Lintas Chennai ECD Bikramjeet Ghosh said, “In a time when teens spend most of their time immersed in their devices, healthy competition between friends has jumped from the playground to the screen. It was challenging as well as exciting to find a contemporary and fun way to show how a kid overcomes a challenge by upping the ante in the real world rather than the digital world which leaves his buddies awestruck. The story captures two interests of any boy – stunts and video games, which resonate in the hearts of our target audience.”
The campaign has just been launched and will span popular offline and online channels in the coming days.
