Passoni Cafe du Cycliste 2.jpgCafé du Cycliste and Passoni join forces to produce bikes and clothing
French bike clothing brand Café du Cycliste and Italian bike producer Passoni have hooked up to produce new bikes and clothing.
“Despite different backgrounds, both companies share a similar philosophy and a flair for producing unique products which work on both an aesthetic and practical level,” says Café du Cycliste.
“Both companies involve the latest technology to achieve maximum performance and both make innovative and daring design choices that manage to combine classic looks with modern styling.”
Passoni has built two top-of-the-range XXTi bikes in Café du Cycliste livery while Café du Cycliste has produced a limited edition Passoni version of its Yolande long sleeve jersey.
Check out our Café du Cycliste Yolande jersey review.
The limited edition Yolande Passoni jerseys are available at cafeducycliste.com and passoni.it priced at €170 (that’s around £121).
The limited edition Passoni bikes, made with both 3Al/2.5V titanium and 6Al/4V titanium, aren’t for sale, although you can rent and ride them if you ever find yourself in the south of France.
Go to www.cafeducycliste.com for more details on that.

Radar tells me their closing speed, if they are slowing and how far away. Then I decide to say a prayer. The change of light pattern is incidental.

No, that's very doubtful while proper testing would be fully destructive.

SOLD OUT in ALL sizes ...
They were £137 - still quite a lot of dosh, but they do look very nice indeed. At least they were cheaper than the beautiful Passoni bikes.
