Sable and Argent

With only a few weeks left of the london Rapha Cycle Club, I had to go and check out the pop-up shop / cafe while back in Blighty. Without realising it I ended up staying for a few hours, taking in the store while sipping very good coffee, watching the Tour on the plasma and chatting to the super friendly and knowledgeable Rapha crew & guests.

It is almost a shame that it’s not here for ever, but also in a way good that it’s not, it keeps us in suspense of whats next for Rapha.

We are please to announce the arrival of the exquisite Rapha women’s range – now in-store. With 5 classically Rapha products, all with the usual high quality technical fabrics and styling, designed purely for the female rider.

With great expectations, several large Rapha boxes were wheeled in-store this afternoon. Each one lovingly packed by Rapha HQ in London.

Inside we find the many new items for 2010 such as the fantastic ‘Country Jersey’ (a must have for your collection), and a wide range of winter goodies such as Pro Team Gloves, 3/4 Bibs, Arm and Leg warmers, Overshoes, Winter Jerseys and many more.

Our verdict on the 2010 range – expectations exceeded again!

Yesterday we had the fine pleasure of meeting comedian and actor Robin Williams, who is in town to record for the Happy Feet sequel.

Robin rode down to the store in the afternoon for some shopping, a look around and chat as well. We talked bikes, bike lanes, and he revealed he has 70 bikes!! We can definitely say Robin is a genuine and down-to-earth, nice guy!

While he was here he snapped up some Rapha gear and Alan Myerson jewellery.

“Rapha creates the finest cycling clothing and accessories in the world”

At Sable and Argent we are proud to be the sole Sydney stockist and first retail destination in Australia to stock Rapha Performance Roadwear. The quality of the clothing and accessories is impeccable, the detailing is extraordinary; Rapha push the boundaries of technical performance and design. Check out the inside of every garment and accessory, the level of detailing is as considered as the external, and each comes with an ‘inside story’.

The guys at Armadillo have created this awesome viral – Big thumbs up guys! – ‘A collection of over-the-top and fun stunts; shot in high definition and super slo-mo. The viral aims to glorify the style and the technical quality of the scooterwear’.
