Not only bikes and clothing are vintage. Now you can register your vintage service car with crew (only cars built before 1993).

Specialists

If you don't have your vintage equipment yet, you best take advice by one of our specialists. Because not everything marked "vintage" truly is.

This was probably the most interesting period in bicycle development and in racing too, with some of the greatest riders of all time comming up like Indurain, Super-Mario, Pantani, Ullrich ... and not to forget our Swiss riders Rominger, Richard or Zülle.
