Brief History of the Marque: S.M.A.C.
The factory built around 600 motorcycles during the 1920s at 25 Rue
de Fontainebleau, St Etienne. Barry M Jones, author of The Panther Story,
says the machines were probably not built under any licencing agreement
with P&M but may in fact be of German design. (See Sept 2008 entry
below). The B2 used an LMP 250cc two-stroke engine.
The city of St. Étienne was for many years the centre of the
French bicycle industry.

P&M Panther - SMAC licence
Hi, I am the author of The Panther Story - (P&M/Panther). The SMAC-Panther
isn't a British P&M/Panther design; it may however be a German Panther
design. I very much doubt P&M would have entered any licencings agreements.
Best wishes,

Hello.I'v found younger brother of my motorcycle on /The Panther Page
Non-P&M Panthers, on the end of page -France/.There is also S.M.A.C
but it,s to small foto to read all letters on the fuel tank.This
motorcycle was build in 1927 ? -it looks yonger , but technical elements
looks like from one mother. France Panther on the fuel tank is rather
sliping /like my/.I,m waiting to get into touch with his owner .
greetings.
