A period part is a story back on the road
Every reference in the workshop has a past: never-fitted old stock, a serviced second-hand part, a faithful re-issue. We hunt them, check them, photograph them — so they find a bike rather than a display case.
Unsure about a part, its era, its compatibility? Behind the screen are enthusiasts in Pau, not a call centre: write to us, we know our aisles by heart.
What the enthusiasts say
“Impossible to find anywhere else in NOS. Flawless packaging, shipped the next day. These people know their stuff — you can feel the enthusiasts behind it.”
“Perfect for my restoration. I would have liked a slightly darker shade, but I am nitpicking — the quality is there, and the advice by email was top-notch.”
