Born from an unbreakable passion for everything that rides on two wheels, it was in 2014 that Marona cycle was born in the suburbs of Québec City. Romain Gignac, a passionate to the bone, decisided to satisfy his needs in order to customize his beast.
It is in a semi-finished basement, making it enjoyable as well as useful, that several parts and the early drafts of the motorcycle’s saddles were crafted. It is also in this very same place that the inspiration for the company’s name came up. What’s better than being surrounded with the names of people who support us from the beginning. It was then, the "ro" from the founder’s name was surrounded by the "ma" of his spouse’s and the "na" of their daughter’s to form Marona.
Starting with a little bit of nothing, inexpensive and easily accessible items, that he decided to meet his needs, which turned out also being the needs of other motorcycle enthusiasts. It was very important for the founder to be able to craft his work as they did back then: by hand!
From stitch to stitch, his creations have definitely fostered a certain craze and a demand for his products increased year after year. That’s the moment Romain decided to diversify his product line and by expanding the Shop into a garage of his image.
From custom made motorcycle saddles to Mexican cover belts, crafted leather goods are now available at Marona Cycle. By spring of 2017, he will offer online sales for his clothing products: t-shirts, hoodies, caps and more, all this under the banner “GLORIEUX GEORGES”.
