Bicycle® Chainless Playing Cards
Celebrating Bicycle® Card Classics!
RETAIL EXCLUSIVE: Only available at your local Target stores until July 2016.
These cards are the classics; unique and archetypal designs from an era of simple fun and elegant design. Interesting to note that the chain has remained an integral part of bicycles since they became popular and it is only in the last 5 years that major companies have started experimenting with belt drives and internally driven (chainless) bicycles.
Bicycle® Chainless playing cards are available in red and blue.
These are some really awesome decks that I would love to try out. I love the different designs and colors. Great read and well written by the way! We have a website about cardistry that has some cool decks too if you want to check it out. Thanks.
