EXHIBITION “THE CYCLE IN SAINT-ETIENNE, A CENTURY OF KNOW-HOW”, France +++++

The exhibition „LE CYCLE À SAINT-ETIENNE, UN SIÈCLE DE SAVOIR-FAIRE" in 2014 and 2015 offered a unique insight into the history of bicycle production in Saint-Etienne to all lovers of two wheels.

From the end of the 19th century, Saint-Étienne became a leader among designers and manufacturers of spare parts for this new bicycle industry. The 1920s are considered the golden age of cycling in Saint-Étienne and saw the development of big brands that became iconic: Ravat, Automoto, Hirondelle, Cyclo and then Mercier and many others. Companies have built their reputation thanks to technical innovations or active involvement in key areas of cycling practice, which are sports, races and cycling tourism.
