FCR Original X Brett: combining style and performance
At FCR Original, every bike tells a story. It begins in Margate, England, in the raw light of a seaside resort that has retained its retro charm and taste for beautiful things. It was here that we shot our second creation with Brett, a brand with whom we share much more than a partnership: an aesthetic vision, a demand for detail, and a common desire to offer objects that make a mark.
A tailor-made motorcycle for a brand with character
This Triumph Legend, based on a Triumph Bonneville T100 2025, is much more than a simple styling project. It is the result of a genuine creative dialogue between the teams at FCR Original and Brett, two companies driven by the same desire: to create singular, meaningful objects capable of telling a story.
The objective was clear from the outset: to imagine a motorcycle that was at once spectacular in its finishes, elegant in its posture, and perfectly aligned with Brett’s visual and narrative universe. A machine designed to become a strong marker in the brand’s boutiques, campaigns or events – an iconic piece, at once functional, aesthetic and deeply inspiring.
Conceived as a living communication tool, this Legend embodies the meeting of style and performance, heritage and innovation, two complementary visions of design applied to movement.
A shared vision of design and detail
This project would never have been possible without a genuine creative affinity between the two companies. Brett and FCR Original share a common vision of design: one where simplicity is the fruit of absolute rigor, where every line, every material, every finish has a reason to exist.
In both our worlds, detail is not an extra – it’s a signature. Whether it’s a titanium bezel hinge or a hand-engraved engine casing, it’s the attention to the smallest detail that creates the exceptional.
This partnership goes far beyond the object: it gives birth to pieces charged with meaning, attitude and culture, designed to last, to leave their mark, and to tell a true story. Design at the level of men and machines.
Exceptional finishes & FCR Original DNA
The bike is as beautiful as it is efficient.
Each component has been selected, adjusted or custom-designed to enhance riding pleasure, responsiveness and visual appeal, in keeping with Triumph’s DNA.
The FCR Original exhaust systemexhaust system, hand-crafted in our workshops, delivers a deep, full sound without ever betraying the bike’s elegance. At the front, the Bates headlight headlight asserts a raw, vintage presence, reinforced by the Cross-type handlebars, which provide a more dynamic riding position.
The cockpit has been completely pared down: commodos reduced to the essentials, Moto Gadget meter discreet but ultra legible. A streamlined cockpit, focused on the riding experience.
The chassis is equipped with custom-designed suspensions, designed to absorb and respond to all conditions. The Continental TKC80 tires offer powerful grip and an assertive scrambler look.
On the intake side K&N air filters air filters are accompanied by optimized engine mapping, for instant response and adapted engine behavior.
Finally, there are the FCR Original essentials:
– Monza fuel filler capfor that vintage touch
– Engine block and radiator grillefor protection
– Chain guardmachined to last
– Discreet, integrated 3-in-1 front and rear turn signals
Each element finds its place with coherence, in the service of an accomplished technical and aesthetic project.
The Brett spirit: eyewear for modern pilots
Brett’s choice of FCR Original is no accident. Since its inception, the French brand has been inspired by the world of car and motorcycle racers of the 60s and 70s: Steve McQueen, Paul Newman and James Hunt. Icons who shared the same raw, functional, effortless elegance.
BRETT eyewear is designed as an attitudinal accessory, with technical, lightweight frames, often in titanium or Japanese acetate, designed to accompany those who live outdoors, on the move.
The link between a pair of Brett glasses and an FCR Original motorcycle is obvious: the same attention to detail, the same quest for functional elegance, and the same refusal of the superfluous. It’s no coincidence that some of the patterns engraved on the Triumph Legend’s crankcases are reminiscent of design elements on Brett frames.
This motorcycle is much more than a communication tool: it’s a mechanical embodiment of the brand.
A creation that rolls, lives… and tells a story
This Triumph Legend is not a static object. It has been designed to live life to the full: to ride, to evolve, and to accompany the Brett brand in its events, shoots, store openings and speaking engagements. Conceived as an image vehicle, it embodies a shared vision of style, elegance and freedom.
Brett and FCR Original share a common language: that of a meaningful object, combining aesthetics, technical demands and character. This motorcycle is more than just a showcase: it becomes a rolling ambassador, as much for our know-how as for the brand’s graphic and narrative universe.
We chose Margate, on the English coast, to stage this creation. A place steeped in history, with a raw light, between retro architecture and wild seaside. A setting in the image of this collaboration: assertive, elegant and resolutely timeless.
