The Collection

We have been scouring the south of France for the last few months, from Toulouse to the foothills of the Pyrenees, armed only with a brick of Lucky Strikes and a beaten up Renault 4...

Having trawled through the deepest catacombs of forgotten brocantes, and use of poorly assembled sentences in the lowest quality pigeon French, we have managed to source the initial gems of our aged bicycle collection.

We have men's, women's and children's bicycles, ranging from the 1940s to the late 70s, with a variety of well known and lesser known manufacturers marks.

These include:

• Motobecane
• Peugeot
• Gitane
• Raleigh
• Elvish
• Giro

These are just a few of the common brands known to the British public, although the collection extends into the realms of post war France, graced by the likes of fixed gear FranceSport etc, made in Paris.

We shall keep you posted on the progress of our company's search, please feel free to post if you have an interest in ordering any of the above, and we would be delighted to keep our eyes peeled for any particular models you desire.

A full and eclectic catalogue of stock photographs and details will follow in the next few days/weeks, with frequent updates.
