Bicycle Prestige Playing Cards – Black – 100% Plastic with Dura-Flex Technology

 

The Only 100% Plastic Card with a Paper-Like Feel

Experience the revolutionary Bicycle Prestige Playing Cards in Black, engineered with exclusive Dura-Flex technology that delivers the impossible: 100% plastic durability with a genuine paper-card feel. Many professionals prefer the flexibility and longevity of plastic cards, but until Prestige, every plastic deck felt noticeably different from traditional cards. Bicycle Prestige changes that equation entirely, offering unmatched durability without sacrificing the familiar handling characteristics that players and magicians demand.

The Dura-Flex Technology Revolution

Traditional plastic playing cards suffer from a critical weakness: they feel like plastic. They're slippery, stiff, and handle nothing like the paper cards that generations of players have mastered. Bicycle Prestige solves this problem through proprietary Dura-Flex technology—a manufacturing breakthrough that gives 100% plastic cards the tactile feel, flexibility, and handling of premium paper stock.

The result is a deck that:

• Shuffles like paper cards – Smooth, controlled riffle shuffles without the slippery plastic feel
• Fans beautifully – Creates even, controlled fans like traditional Bicycle decks
• Springs and dribbles naturally – Cardistry moves work exactly as they do with paper stock
• Feels familiar – Players immediately recognize the handling characteristics they know and trust

Premium Black Rider Back Design

The Black Prestige deck features the classic Bicycle Rider Back design in striking black:

• Black Card Backs – The iconic angels-on-bicycles design rendered in deep black
• Standard Faces – Traditional red and black pips, courts, and indices for immediate recognition
• Standard Bicycle Ace of Spades – The familiar Bicycle Ace maintains brand authenticity
• Two Jokers – One color Joker and one black-and-white Joker, standard Bicycle design
• Poker Size – 63 x 88mm standard dimensions

Unmatched Durability & Performance

The Prestige deck delivers benefits that paper cards simply cannot match:

• Spill-proof gameplay – Cards survive drink spills without damage
• Washable – Rinse dirty or sticky cards under water, dry them, and they're good as new
• Pool & beach friendly – Perfect for outdoor games where moisture is unavoidable

For serious players, professionals, and anyone who plays frequently, Prestige pays for itself many times over.

The Bicycle Prestige Black deck combines the familiar Bicycle brand with revolutionary plastic technology, delivering a playing card that looks traditional, handles like paper, and lasts like plastic. It's the perfect fusion of heritage and innovation.
