The 4 h.p. model is an attractive double-purpose mount, suitable for solo riding, and yet sufficiently powerful for a sidecar in all ordinary districts. One of the chief features of this mount is the careful manner in which the mudguarding has been studied. The rear guard extends well over the back wheel, and is provided not only with deep valances, but a special guard over the belt. Footboards sloping to a comfortable angle are provided. As regards the frame, combined lugs are employed where possible, and the tool-bag cases are welded on to the carrier, and not held by clips.
2¾ h.p. Blackburne; 71x88 mm. (350 c.c); single-cylinder four-stroke; side-by-side valves; Best and Lloyd lubrication; Amac carburetter; T.B. chain-driven magneto; two-speed Burman gear; chain and belt drive; 26x2¼ in. tyres. Price £99 15s.
The lightweight model is similar in most respects to the 4 h.p. machine, and is a useful solo mount. Its appearance is considerably improved by the fitting of aluminium disc wheels of quite sound design. Both wheels are completely covered-in, as the edges of the rims are turned over and allow the discs to fit close up against the rim. The method of fixing is by bolts round the periphery of the discs. In this model, mudguarding is equally well carried out. Being a lighter machine, footrests are provided instead of footboards.
5-7 h.p. Coventry Victor; 75x78 mm. (688 c.c.); twin-cylinder four-stroke; side-by-side valves; Best and Lloyd lubrication; Amac two-lever carburetter; T.B. magneto; three-speed Sturmey-Archer gear; all-chain drive; Dunlop 650x65 mm. tyres.
This handsome sidecar outfit, of medium power and weight, well suited for general touring, is fitted with a smooth-running flat twin engine. Having a three-speed gear box and all-chain transmission, it should be capable of going anywhere. The size of the rear mudguard is worth special comment, while the front guard is well valanced. The frame, being composed almost entirely of straight tubes, is of strong construction, and should stand plenty of rough work.
