Since the bicycle was invented in 1817 by the German Karl Von Drais , we have not stopped pedaling. It has become an indispensable vehicle for the lives of thousands of people in the world, in addition to being ecological. And although there are different prices and qualities, none resemble the fresh out of the oven from the fashion house Louis Vuitton .
With a retro design, the French brands Louis Vuitton and Maison Tamboite have come together to launch the LV Bike line of bicycles.
Maison Tamboite
If you are a bicycle connoisseur, you have surely listened to this firm. It is a French house that has been manufacturing this product for more than 107 years. His first store was founded in 1912 on Rue Dulong, Paris, France. As for the first collection to hit the market, it was les Cycles Rych .
Of course, their entire history has been marked by the way they make these products, since they do it in a traditional way, from the first to the last generation. All are handmade, made to order and made to measure combining materials such as steel, leather and wood.
