Since its creation in 2018, the Rouen-based company Le Vélo Mad has met with great success among both the general public and cycling professionals, becoming the official e-bike of the Tour de France in 2021. Designed and assembled in France in Machecoul at La Manufacture Française du Cycle, France’s leading bicycle manufacturer, Le Vélo Mad is sold on its website, in its showrooms in Rouen and Paris, as well as at FNAC and DARTY. After being the official e-bike of the Tour de France in 2021, Le Vélo Mad is once again partnering with the legendary cycling race to become the official e-bike of the 2022 edition.

Since its conception, the Rouen-based company has wanted to make things evolve. That’s why it offers an eco-responsible bicycle.
The bike batteries are reconditioned by Doctibike, the French leader in battery repair and reconditioning. While electric-assist bicycles pollute less than cars, the ecological impact of their manufacturing is not neutral. Reconditioning helps limit this impact by ensuring greater durability for the bikes. From an economic point of view, reconditioning also allows for a 10% to 30% saving compared to buying a new battery of the same capacity!
As for the bike paint, it is also eco-responsible. Le Vélo Mad uses French powder paint that contains no solvents. This avoids evaporation problems. In addition, any oversprayed powder can be recovered, preventing it from escaping into the atmosphere and helping to reduce air pollution. Thanks to the absence of solvents, the powder reduces the risk of fire and offers a very important health advantage.

Le Vélo Mad is committed to a responsible distribution model by favoring short circuits. Direct sales allow the e-bike to be delivered directly from the factory to the customer without intermediaries. For even more convenience, the Rouen-based company offers a repair service with personalized assistance at home or at work. This choice of short circuit allows them to offer an e-bike at an attractive price.
Le Sport + and Urbain 2 in Tour de France colors
The Rouen-based company once again sports the colors of the Grande Boucle. Blue, Grey, and Yellow replace the Blue, White, Red of the logo. For the occasion, 50 units of the Le Sport + model and 50 units of the Urbain 2 in the colors of the Grande Boucle are released in a limited edition. From their original versions, in addition to the logo color, the French Berthoud saddle branded Tour de France replaces the Brooks saddle on these two e-bikes.
