Issue 107 – Innovators

Cycling and innovation are inextricably linked. While the ultimate utilitarian mode of transport remains recognisably the same machine Victorians would take on the road, the racing bike in its many forms has evolved immeasurably in recent decades. And those who ride them have replaced tradition and superstition with considered training methods and revolutionary thinking.

Rouleur celebrates the appliance of science, whether cutting-edge machines from the finest bike-makers in the world, equipment and kit manufacturers pushing the envelope in design, or riders with radical approaches to going faster, and being better.
