Our purpose is to make cycling the most popular sport in the world.

Cycling has the power to transform lives. As anyone who rides will tell you, the health benefits – both mental and physical – are huge. But what if we all rode our bikes more regularly? From traffic congestion to climate change, we believe that cycling has the power to help solve some of society’s most complex issues and make the world around us a better place. And because we believe that, we are committed to making cycling the most popular sport in the world.

Our Work

Given our mission, our work at Rapha is to inspire people to ride. At every stage of a cyclist’s journey, we’re there to advise, encourage and support with beautiful films, carefully compiled publications and, of course, with innovative products that make riding more comfortable, enjoyable and help you achieve your goals.

Our Values

Everything we do at Rapha is informed by a set of commonly held values. Though our work has grown to encompass a broad range of activities, the same values that guided our growth at the start continue to do so now. From Sydney to San Francisco, product designers to floor leads, everyone on our diverse team works towards fulfilling these values.

OUR CULTURE

At our London headquarters and our other locations around the world, you’ll find passionate staff who all share a love for cycling. Most of us ride to work and on Wednesday mornings, we take a break from what we’re doing to ride together. Three times a year, we even close our offices for the entire day to celebrate each other’s successes on our office rides.

To celebrate each other’s successes and get to know colleagues from other teams, we close the office for the day and come together three times a year on our three annual office rides.

In a long held Rapha tradition, staff take Wednesday mornings off to take a break from their work and ride together.

Awarded to staff members who go above and beyond in honour of one of our cycling heroes who, with courage and determination, overcame the odds to take a surprise victory on a stage of the 1994 Tour de France over Mont Ventoux.

Named in honour of record-breaking distance cyclist Marguerite Wilson, this award celebrates staff members who have achieved incredible feats on the roads and trails.
