Rapha Opens Clubhouse in Shanghai
Will Ross, December 1, 2025
Rapha has opened its first Clubhouse in mainland China, situated in a restored 1925 mansion in the Hengshan-Fuxing Road are of Shanghai. Now part of a footprint of 22 global Clubhouses, the space combines a retail area with a café and a community hub for cyclists, hosting rides and events, reflecting its ‘next-generation Clubhouse concept’ inspired by Italian social clubs (circolo).
An opening ceremony was held in late-November, accompanied with a Factor-serviced community ride including Rapha CEO Fran Millar.

This launch is a significant milestone for Rapha, marking its debut in the vast mainland Chinese market. It allows the brand to extend its unique retail-community model and cycling culture to a rapidly growing local cycling audience, providing a physical home for its existing Rapha Cycling Club (RCC) members in the region and paving the way for further expansion in Asia.
Open from 10am to 8pm, seven days a week. Cafe open until 6pm each day.
