In honor of Tadej Pogačar’s sweeping victory at the 2021 Tour de France, bicycle manufacturer Colnago has launched an exclusive V3Rs Capsule Collection. According to a
press release from June, the model is the “first official bicycle in the history of the Tour de France.”
The collection includes three versions of the brand’s flagship road bike to match the trio of jerseys Pogačar wore at this year’s race.
The Slovenian cyclist had snagged the top spot for the general classification, the young rider competition, and the King of the Mountain’s competition.
All three bikes will come with a black base frame, one with yellow accents, the second in plain black and white, and the third featuring red polka dots similar to those on the Tour de France climber’s jersey.
Plus, as per Colnago, in a statement quoted by
Bike Radar, each of the bicycles “will be delivered with a unique piece of memorabilia that holds its own special money-can’t-buy status: an original Tour rankings jersey autographed by Pogačar.” Each of the signed jerseys will match its corresponding bike.
These bikes cost a pretty penny, with their suggested retail price at US$16,699. If you’re a serious cyclist or want something to remember this year’s race by, head over
here.
