MAXI SPORTS Time Trial by CYFAC – authentic bike of JACKY DURAND (winning bike of the prologue, Tour de France 1995) – SOLD

CYFAC was founded in 1983 by Francis Quillon, Cyfac began in his garage with the help of his wife, Mireille. Quillon was a successful amateur racer, a sprinter for the national team. During his racing career he worked for one of his team’s sponsors, a local bicycle manufacturer. Quillon repaired his teammates’ bikes, started making bikes from scratch, and eventually started to equip pro racers who wanted frames made and then painted in their sponsor’s name. Quillon opened the Cyfac workshop to supply frames to racing teams. In the late 1980s and through 1990s CYFAC built very top end frames for other bike brands so they meet standards for their best riders. They built road and time trial bike (labeled RALEIGH ) for Laurent Fignon, when he won the Tour de France 1989.

Jacky Durand (born 10 February 1967 in Laval, Mayenne) is a French former professional road bicycle racer.  Durand had an attacking style, winning the Tour of Flanders in 1992 after a 217 kilometres (135 mi) breakaway, and three stages in the Tour de France.

Durand rode seven Tours de France, finishing last in the 1999 race. In 1995 he was the winner of the prologue, starting before it began raining. He wore the yellow jersey for two days.
