Condor: Past Present Future

By Joe Hall • 15th November 2011 02:20pm • Posted in Art & Design

Past Present Future is a collection of essays and photo stories, celebrating Condor Cycles 65 year history. The book features anecdotes and interviews from riders, racers and staff, with a mix of portrait, studio and archive photography. And, of course, there are bikes, past and present, along with behind-the-scenes looks at manufacturing and design processes.

John Herety discusses British racing and the inception of the Rapha Condor Sharp team, and Condor’s roots within British racing. Former Condor rider and Tour de France veteran, Colin Lewis, shares stories about racing abroad, while production director, Neil Manning, discusses why steel frames have always remained within the Condor range.

Yes Adam, thanks for this. Amongst those that know Mr. Fisher (or "Fish" to many) appreciate what a great mechanic the man is. I didn't realise his rep reached over to NYC. Cheers.

Condor was also a legendary Swiss brand of bicycles, manufactured where I live, in the canton of Jura. It also manufactures the bikes of the army. But she died before the arrival of fixie…
