Overview[edit | edit source]
Triumph Bonneville T100 "Union Jack"
Alongside the striking Live Fast version, the 2005 Bonneville T100 Multi-Union is another spectacular creation from Paul Smith.
A sweet complement to Smith's Triumph accessories and apparel collection, the Bonneville T100 Multi-Union's name speaks for itself: a nifty Union Jack-themed bulbous tank, with happy colors on the 3D tank badge and matching fender accents make this bike stand from the crowd. With only 50 units ever made, the Paul Smith 2005 Bonneville T100 Multi-Union is surely a collector's item.
They say two heads are better than one. When the heads are Triumph and Paul
Smith, there's no question about it. Passion for fashion; the Bonneville
T100 like you've never seen it before.
The initial collaboration created
'Triumph by Paul Smith', a modern collection of accessories and jeans wear
inspired by Triumph Motorcycles. However, as the partnership grew so did the
creativity and nine Bonneville T100's were customised with individual paint
schemes designed by Paul Smith to complement the clothing and accessory
range. These nine one-off bikes generated so much interest that Triumph and
Paul Smith created two more original Bonneville T100 custom designs,
nicknamed the Live-Fast and Multi-Union, especially for retail. Only 50
of each of these two Limited Edition Triumph Bonneville T100s by Paul Smith
will be produced for sale globally.
With all the heritage that makes these brands great, this is
quintessentially British design with an added Paul Smith twist.
Bonneville T100
A modern incarnation of the classic sixties speedster, the Bonneville
T100 oozes authentic motorcycle chic. Its heavily chromed covers,
distinctive air cooling fins and twin clocks complement the delicious Paul
Smith designed paintwork, while the twin cylinder engine, with its
distinctive throaty burble through pea shooter pipes, and easy-handling
chassis make the T100 as good to ride as it is to look at.
Style-Ville
Paul Smith believes you can find inspiration in anything. His designs
bring together tradition, humour and style to evoke British individuality
and eccentricity. Over the years, he has become more than a fashion label,
and since the seventies, the Paul Smith brand has been a major influence on
UK design and culture - constantly redefining the essence of 'Britishness'.
Put them together...
With the combination of individual style, enduring quality and true
Britishness, it makes perfect sense for Paul Smith and Triumph to get
together. As the Commercial Director of Triumph, Tue Mantoni says;
"Paul Smith and Triumph are cut from the same cloth; with long-standing
British heritage, classic design style and a global cult following."
And what do you get?
The Triumph by Paul Smith range of clothing and accessories are now
available in selected Paul Smith stores globally.
Press Release
Paul Smith customised nine Triumph Bonneville T100s with one-off paint
designs. These nine individually designed bikes were not intended for sale,
but to be used as press pieces and global promotional activity.
In response to the overwhelming reaction to these special bikes, Triumph
has decided to produce two limited edition Paul Smith designs for sale.
Inspired by two of the original customised designs, the Live-Fast and
Multi-Union models feature special hand-painted bodywork and mock-croc
leather seats. Fifty of each design will be produced for sale globally and
each bike will be individually numbered and authenticated with a
certificate, signed by Paul Smith and John Bloor, Triumphs owner.
