Mini Cooper Launching New Urban Bicycle

The Cooper Car Company began life  in the 1940's with cars that would go on to be a major force within the highest levels of motor racing.  The Cooper name lives on in the Mini Cooper, a modern day classic of automotive engineering.

Today, the Cooper Car Company is branching out and launching an urban bicycle line which marks the 50th anniversary of the company's first Formula One victory. The bicycles will mark the racing heritage with models such as the Monza and Sebring.

According to the official blurb, both bikes will “exhibit the modern aggressive styling of a track bike, and combine confident, sharp handling with comfort and smoothness.” The T100 Monza is supplied in dark blue with flat bars and the T100 Sebring is finished in silver, and has bullhorn bars.

In addition to the T100 Monza and T100 Sebring, the Cooper range will include the T200 Championship 50, a special edition single speed, finished in classic Cooper racing green to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Cooper Car Company Formula 1 World Championship victory in 1959, and the T200 Reims 5 Speed.
