Designed without compromise for the most discerning riders, Rapha products use the finest fabrics and components to create apparel and accessories that offer road riders unrivalled levels of performance, comfort and style. If you are familiar with Rapha you'll know that they stand for quality and as you might expect their literature is produced in an exemplary way.

This small publication is the care guide for the Rapha GT shoes, produced in partnership with Giro in California.

 

The book is A6 (148x105mm) portrait and is perfect bound with the spine measuring about 3mm. Cover is hot foil blocked in two colours.

The 40pp text is printed on our StarFine White 130gsm. As you can see from the above image, there are 6pp printed in their "Rapha Pink" a solid vibrant pink, which neatly divides the book, separating the English (in the front half) from the other three languages.
