Private Label Solutions, licensing and concept stores are also part of Cycleurope´s business idea. Under the name of Velo & Oxygen and together with Cycleurope´s many retailers, a concept store agreement has been developed. Velo & Oxygen can be found in more than 700 stores around France. Cycleurope has an exclusive license agreement with the Renault brand. Spectra is Cycleurope´s brand for parts and accessories.
With Cycleurope´s pro cycling team LIQUIGAS-Bianchi, Cycleurope is one of the key players in the world of professional cycle racing.
