A French comic concerning the lives and times of Parisian biker gang Joe Bar Team.

Tropes used include:

  • All Bikers Are Hells Angels: Subverted, the Joes are pretty average joes, who happen to enjoy riding motorbikes. Very fast.
  • Badass Biker: Subverted, again, due to the Joes' complete averageness. Any fight will usually end with at least one Joe in bandages.
  • The Bartender: Joe, owner and proprietor of Joe Bar.
  • Dream Sequence: Many.
  • Explosive Overclocking by way of Tim Taylor Technology: Nitroglycerinemethanol. Gives immense power to any engine, but is extremely unstable and has been known to scatter pistons across the countryside.
  • Grease Monkey: All the Joes are shown to do their own repairs to some extent, but Jean-Raoul acts as the team mechanic, as well as owning and running a repair shop.
  • Hate Dumb: In-universe: Many rants concerning the crappy quality of Harley-Davidson bikes, as well as the abundance of crap HD merchandise.
  • Identical Grandson: Edouard's nephew.
  • Local Hangout: Again, Joe Bar.
  • Police Are Useless: The police are recurring antagonists, wanting to get their hands on the Joes for a large number of motor violations, mostly speeding. Occasionally, they succeed.
  • Punny Name: Everyone except Joe.
