To celebrate the 100th running of the Tour de France, Rapha made a special collection of jerseys, caps, musettes, T-shirts, scarves and bottles dubbed La Centième Collection.
The mosaic print was designed by Rapha's Ultan Coyle, the reigning UK 24-hour TT champion (488.99 miles). Coyle's graphics represent every rider to have won the Tour since it was first run in 1903. Each mosaic ‘tile’ features a symbol based either on a rider’s nickname or regional origin.
