Continuing the
cyclemotor theme, here's a Cyclemaster hanging from the roof.
And
this one is a Mosquito
Back down on the floor we find a
Teagle.
The engine isn't fitted but this
is still unmistakably a Victoria cyclemotor. The cycle behind it has
a belt rim on its front whell - that'll be for a Rex then.
A selection
on Bantamoto engines and fittings
This is something a bit
different: its the engine from a Dayton Motor Bicycle and it dates from
before the First World War.
Looking
upwards again we see an Excelsior Autobyk. This is the version with
the single-speed Spryt engine.
It looks a lot like a Hercules
(Sachs) M4 but it says "Honey 50" on the side of this moped ... so
that must be what it is.
One of Motobécane's 'suitcase'
MobyX mopeds, this one's an X7
More engines. That's a
Flandria one at the front and there are a lot of Villiers flywheels to be
seen.
Zündapp
Combinette.
Here is a second example of a
Cyclaid.
A
BSA Winged Wheel and, next to it, the third
Cyclaid we've seen so far.
This is
another of those 40cc Morini motors.
A Viper -
probably the worst production cyclemotor in the World. Lets move on
quickly.
That's much
better - it's a Smith Motor Wheel from immediately after World War
One. Although the Smith was a licence-built version of the Wall Auto
Wheel it is quite different from the Wall in many respects.
Now here's something much more
familiar - it's a Raleigh RM8 Automatic
Mark 2 ... or is it? It certainly looks just like one apart from
the colour ... and the Lucas healamp.
However, out here in New Zealand it wasn't sold under the Raleigh brand -
this is a Phillips Traveller.
Belmondo 2nd series Sport with Zündapp
engine.
Belmondo was a Swiss brand for mopeds imported to
Switzerland by MOHAG Zurich. This version has a frame made by
Intramotor–Gloria in Verona (Italy); the engine is a Zündapp.
The legshields and deep valences on this
NSU mark it as a Quickly L.
James Superlux autocycle
This splendid device started as a Francis
Barnett Powerbike 50 but has evolved over many years. In
particular, the replacement front forks and those magnificent handlebars
give it the look of a racing machine.
Let's see what else we can find in here.
