Summary

Rapha is celebrating a decade of its Rapha Cycling Club (RCC) with renowned artist and designer David Carson who put his collage-style touches on a striking limited edition collection. RCC members will be able to purchase the exclusive apparel and accessories this August 26 both online and select stockists.
Carson reimagined a full cycling kit and accessories with his free-spirited and experimental style. As a pioneer of American graphic art, he is well recognized for his nonconformist approach to typography and layout design. This partnership continues a history of Rapha working with global artists, a list that includes Kelly Anna, Yoon Hyup, María Medem and Geoff McFetridge.
As part of the collection, Rapha has also teamed up with Factor Bikes to release an exclusive Factor MONZA bike designed by Carson. While RCC members have been able to rent Factor bikes, this will be the first time a Rapha and Factor bike is available for purchase. You can enter to win the limited edition machine here on Rapha’s online prize draw.
The Rapha Cycling Club has grown into a global community with over 4,000 rides worldwide last year, covering more than three million miles. The new collection offers members a chance to own a piece that celebrates a memorable chapter that involves a legendary graphic artist’s vision.
