Collaboration between Ligne Roset and Origine results in a highly exclusive bicycle production
The unique partnership between French cycling brand Origine Cycles and iconic furniture designer Ligne Roset has resulted in the limited-edition Fraxion GTR road bike. This high-performance bike, adorned with ten unique Pantone colours, is a testament to the shared vision of both companies for blending high-tech cycling with contemporary design aesthetics.
The collaboration between Origine Cycles and Ligne Roset was initiated after a photoshoot for the Kashima sofa at Yves Amiel's home, the co-founder of Origine Cycles. This union has led to the creation of the Ligne Roset x Origine edition of the Fraxion GTR, which will be displayed in Ligne Roset stores worldwide, including Paris, New York, Los Angeles, London, Berlin, Shanghai, and Dubai.
## Where and When to Find Fraxion GTR Limited-Edition Bikes
The limited-edition Fraxion GTR road bikes are expected to be available in select upscale cycling boutiques or design-focused concept stores in the following cities:

Origine Cycles produces bikes for various occasions, including mountain bikes and e-bikes, but the ten bikes from this collaboration are part of a special release. The ultimate goal is to integrate Ligne Roset's approach into Origine's line-up, with a range of special editions available online and in Ligne Roset showrooms. Special attention has been paid to the leather coverings and stitching on the handlebars and saddles of the Ligne Roset x Origine edition.
Ligne Roset has collaborated with renowned designers such as Jean Nouvel, Inga Sempé, Philippe Nigro, and the Bouroullec brothers. The Ligne Roset Togo foam sofa, designed in 1973, the year the Ligne Roset name was established, was shown alongside the Ligne Roset x Origine edition of the Fraxion GTR road bike.
