A Brief History of the Marque

Manufactured: 1948-1954

This small motorcycle workshop with between 6 and 10 employees was located in Hamburg.

The company was founded by Richard Englbrecht in 1948 and produced motorcycles similar to other German pre-war designs but powered by the new 250cc JLO twin. He was the first German manufacturer to offer swing-arm rear suspension.

Financial problems forced the firm's closure in 1954.
