Nothing about the rendering specifies that the frame isn't made of solid steel rods.

Aren't you assuming that it's a tube of the same thickness as a typical bike?

And furthermore, that someone building it wouldn't be allowed to make obvious accomodations to reinforce the parts of the frame under stress?

E.g. [1] shows a bike for sale with similarly lacking bracing of the head tube.
