OLD SCHOOL CYCLING


Being an everyday cyclist, i'm always looking for stylish accessories for my hobby turned mean of transportation.
Launched in 2004, Rapha is my favourite brand when it comes to cycling clothing.
Known for its wonderful and well designed pieces, the collection is made in the finest materials and includes a wide range of products, such as jackets, shorts, jerseys, gloves and shirts.
A complete delight for all fans of the two-wheeled sport, the british brand doesn't stop at the clothing and accesories, but also celebrares the full glory of road racing.

Besides having a UCI-registered team (in partnership with London based Condor Cycles), Rapha also publishes a quarterly magazine called Rouleur, where cycling is portrayed in a truly inspiring and appealing way.
But that's not all. Since 2007, the british brand embarked on a new adventure - Rapha Continental - in which two groups of riders (east coast and west coast) roam through the most epic routes of the United States to show Rapha's commitment to the lost art of cycling.
