Cycles Clement Paris - Vintage French Bicycle Poster

Cycles Clément, Paris - Pneu Dunlop

In 1896 Adolphe Clément owned the very profitable manufacturing rights for Dunlop Tyres in France. He entered into a partnership with a syndicate led by Dunlop's founder Harvey Du Cros to buy out the Gladiator Cycle Company and then later merged the company to become the major bicycle manufacturing conglomerate of Clément, Gladiator & Humber & Co Limited.. The company grew and in 1902 the motorised bicycle led to cars and motorcycles. From 1909 the company became known as Clément-Bayard.
