This French heritage honors a certain way of approaching life. Just like on a racing bike, pushing oneself to the limit, the solidarity of the group, the wonder of discovering new roads and the joy after a ride are all metaphors for life at Mercier.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7434\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themust.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mercier_poulidor_magne.jpg\" alt=\"mercier\" width=\"1104\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themust.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mercier_poulidor_magne.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.themust.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mercier_poulidor_magne-300x194.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1104px) 100vw, 1104px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extreme quality and ethical manufacturing<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>The line is developed in the French Alps and handcrafted in northern Italy with textile materials largely made in France. Beyond this highly developed design and manufacturing technique, Mercier is a state of mind, a religion. Its commandments are simple: live and consume life like a Sunday morning on a bike, with good humor and enthusiasm. Physically give your best, surpass yourself. Be interested in and support your teammate when they&#8217;re in your slipstream. Laugh at everything and out loud. Marvel at the nature that surrounds us. During breaks, take the opportunity to discover a good restaurant or share a sumptuous meal with the peloton, accompanied by good wine and local products that will be consumed without moderation, only the moderation necessary to cover the remaining 60 kilometers to return home and find your family, your home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><em>Mercier<\/em> positions itself against <em>Rapha<\/em>, the Italian brand that has become an international <em>benchmark<\/em> and has experienced an incredible success story since 2004. <em>Mercier<\/em> claims very French values that it wants to share beyond borders.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image media=&#8221;154931&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;154047&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;154932&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;428684&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;154933&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;235813&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;154934&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;207481&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-182149&#8243; dynamic=&#8221;yes&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;154034&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;721910&#8243;]\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\r\n<p><strong>Soyez heureux \u00e0 v\u00e9lo ! <\/strong><br \/><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mercier.cc\">mercier.cc<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mercier is reborn after more than 40 years of absence, the brand has found its roots.
