Henri Dépierre (1919 – 1983)
He built bikes for some of the greatest racing cyclists of his time such as Luis OCAÑA, who won the Tour de France in 1973 on a bike built by DEPIERRE. To celebrate the victory of Ocaña, Depierre added a map of France on the Cinelli front fittings of its bikes starting from 1973. Depierre also added a “Le Coq” cutout on the front lug in 1978 which lasted until 1980 when he handed over the business to his son, Jacques.
During the late 1940s/ early 1950s Henri Depierre build bikes under “Cadres PERFECTION” brand:
During the 1950s, to survive the crisis of the bicycle, victim of the success of the moped and the automobile, Henri DEPIERRE changed activities and began to manufacture lighting fixtures for Serge MOUILLE, metal artist and lighting designer
In 1967 Henri’s son, Jacques (1946 – 1996), finished his military service, so Henri decided to open up a new workshop as a craftsman frame builder, taking Jacques on as the workshop assistant to build up the bikes and thus, Gemini brand was created (name of the brand could come from his son, Jacques having Gemini as a birth sign).
