1950 Gold-Rad Bicycle with Victoria engineFrame no. 68529Engine no. 54960For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams websiteThis lot is to be sold without reserve.The company that would go on to manufacture Gold-Rad bicycles was founded in Siegberg, Germany in 1892 by Benjamin Goldberg, whose first catalogue of own-brand machines was published in 1912. After WW2 Gold-Rad diversified, adding lightweight motorcycles and mopeds to the range together with folding bicycles and sports equipment. The company ceased trading in 1998. Founded in Nürnberg, Germany in 1886, bicycle-maker Victoria added motorcycle manufacturing to its portfolio towards the end of the 19th Century. The firm used proprietary engines initially before acquiring the means to make its own in the late 1920s. Small-capacity two-strokes formed the mainstay of production immediately after WW2.Remarkable in retaining its original paintwork, this Victoria-powered Gold-Rad is equipped with a Dunlop saddle, Hella horn, and Bosch lamp. There are no documents with this Lot.Intéressante pour sa peinture d'origine, cette Gold-Rad à moteur Victoria est équipée d'une selle Dunlop, d'un avertisseur Hella et d'un phare Bosch.

c.1924 Ner-a-Car 285ccFrame no. 3797Engine no. 4845For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website•Purchased in 2001•Original factory paintwork and transfer•Eligible for the Banbury Run and Graham Walker RunDespite the demonstrable advantages of hub centre steering and the fact that the system has appeared at regular intervals since motorcycling's earliest days, there had only ever been one machine - before the advent of Yamaha's GTS - that made it into volume production: the Ner-a-Car. Invented by American Carl A Neracher in 1919, the machine was built under licence in the UK by Sheffield Simplex, using part of what had been the Sopwith Aviation works in Kingston-on-Thames. The basic design remained unaltered - pressed-steel chassis, voluminous front mudguard, hub-centre-steering, friction drive transmission - but whereas US-built models were powered by a two-stroke engine of 221cc, Sheffield Simplex chose to fit their own 285cc unit. Four-stroke sidevalve and (later) overhead-valve 350cc Blackburne-engined versions equipped with conventional three-speed gearboxes followed. Endowed with excellent handling and weather protection, the Ner-a-Car was a great success, production only ceasing in 1926 because of problems within other parts of the Sheffield Simplex group. This highly original example was purchased at Bonhams & Brooks' Stafford sale in October 2001 (Lot 586). Our description was as follows: 'Last taxed for the road in 1932, this 285cc Ner-a-Car is reported to have been owned by a Somerset lady, who, having fallen off it once, never road it again. Offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed, the machine is described as in 'very original' condition and comes with an original (1924) owner's manual.' Boasting its original factory paintwork and transfer, the machine carries a 1932 tax disc and features an original Gough Ner-a-Car saddle and Halford horn. Accompanying documentation includes the auction catalogue page, a photocopied parts list, a magazine article, and a selection of photographs.• Acquise en 2001• Peinture et décalques d'usine d'origine• Eligible aux Banbury et Graham Walker RunsCet exemplaire dans un bel état d'origine a été acquis lors de la vente Bonhams & Brooks de Stafford en octobre 2001 (Lot 586). Elle était décrite ainsi : « Taxe de circulation acquittée pour la dernière fois en 1932, cette Ner-a-Car de 285 cm3 aurait été la propriété d'une dame du Somerset qui, après une seule chute, ne reprit jamais la route à son guidon. » Offerte « à restaurer » et vendue strictement dans l'état, la machine est décrite comme étant d'origine et accompagnée du manuel d'utilisation d'origine (1924). En peinture d'origine usine et avec ses décalques, la machine qui possède sa vignette fiscale de 1932 est équipée d'une selle Gough Ner-a-Car et d'une trompe Halford d'origine. La documentation jointe comprend la page du catalogue de la vente, une liste de pièces de rechange en photocopie, un article de magazine et une sélection de photos.It should be noted that these vehicles have either been on display in the museum or kept in store since Peter and Ulrike passed away.

c.1903 Werner 344ccEngine no. 5636For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website•Early model from an influential make•An older restoration•Direct belt driveThe 1901 Werner is generally acknowledged as the first powered two-wheeler to carry its engine in the frame where the bicycle's bottom bracket and pedalling gear had been located, and thus is credited as the progenitor of the modern motorcycle. In actual fact, Gottlieb Daimler's Einspur prototype of 1884 had mounted its engine in the same position, as had various other manufacturers prior to Werner. The latter though, was the only firm with the foresight to patent the idea. Paris-based Russian émigrés Michel and Eugene Werner had built their first motorcycle in 1896 by the simple expedient of mounting a single-cylinder petrol engine, designed by Hippolyte Labitte, in front of the steering head of a bicycle, directly above the front wheel, which it drove via a belt. One of the first practical motorcycles, the Werner Motocyclette proved an immediate success and the brothers abandoned their cinematograph business to set up a factory to build it. Harry J Lawson acquired the British rights to the design and in 1900 Werner sold a staggering 1,000 machines. The Werner, however, was not without its shortcomings, not the least of which was the dreaded 'sideslip', a consequence of the design's high centre of gravity, whereupon the hot tube ignition would cause the fallen machine to catch fire. It is not difficult to imagine what an immense step forward the Werners' 1901 design must have seemed. An older restoration of an interesting model, this early Werner features direct drive by belt and has a Wrights saddle and a headlamp of unknown make. Accompanying paperwork includes a brochure, photocopied technical literature, correspondence, and a selection of photographs including pre-restoration images.• Un des premiers modèles d'une marque influente• Restauration ancienne• Courroie de transmission directe Intéressant modèle objet d'une restauration ancienne, cette très vénérable Werner possède une transmission directe par courroie, une selle Wrights et une lampe de marque inconnue.

c.1904 Peugeot 2½hpFrame no. 5846Engine no. 4588For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website•Rare 'La Belle Époque'-era Peugeot•An older restoration•Optional Truffault front forkFormerly producers of tools, coffee mills, umbrella spikes and corsetry, Peugeot commenced its long-standing connection with transportation in the early 1880s when it added cycle manufacture to its portfolio. The world's oldest surviving motor manufacturer, the company commenced car production in 1889 with a steam-powered tricycle but soon abandoned steam in favour of the internal combustion engine. Also one of the pioneering firms of the French motorcycle industry, Peugeot followed the familiar progression: first adding proprietary clip-on engines to its bicycles before building complete machines of its own manufacture. The first Peugeot bicycle was manufactured in 1882; at this time the firm was known as Peugeot Frères but, as more family members joined, changed its name to Les Fils de Peugeot Frères in 1889.Peugeot's first motorcycle – the 'Motobicyclette' – was introduced at the Paris Salon of 1901. Its 1½hp engine was supplied by the Swiss firm of Zürcher & Lüthi (also known as ZL or Zedel) and mounted on the front down-tube ahead of the pedals. Around 1903 Peugeot began manufacturing its own engines, which were mounted within the frame in the Werner position, thus improving weight distribution and handling, though assistance for the engine by means of bicycle pedals would remain a feature for some years to come. That same year, a team of five 3½hp Peugeots competed in the Paris-Madrid race. Truffault swinging-arm suspension was adopted on some Peugeot models for 1904, making them among the world's most advanced.Dating from 1904 and equipped with the optional Truffault front fork, this Edwardian-era Peugeot is one of the first to feature the company's own engine. Displaying the 'PF' (Peugeot Frères) logo, it incorporates an automatic inlet valve and mechanically operated (side) exhaust valve, with lubrication by 'total loss', arrangements typical of the period. An older restoration, the machine also features a Longuemare carburettor, Herm. Remman Germania headlamp, wooden twistgrips, Selecta saddle, and a Hercule horn. Accompanying paperwork consists of a selection of photographs and a quantity of photocopied technical literature (in French).• Rare Peugeot de « la Belle époque »• Ancienne restauration• Fourche avant Truffault optionnelleDatant de 1904 et dotée de la fourche avant « élastique » Truffault en option, cette Peugeot du début des années 1900 est un des premiers modèles équipés d'un moteur maison. Portant l'écusson « PF » (Peugeot Frères), elle est dotée d'une soupape d'admission automatique et d 'une soupape d'échappement latérale commandée et d'un système de graissage à huile perdue, caractéristique de cette période. Anciennement restaurée, cette machine possède un carburateur Longuemare, un phare Herm. Remman Germania, des poignées en bois, une selle Selecta et une trompe Hercule.

1902 Singer/Perks & Birch 2½hp Tricycle Frame no. 536Engine no. 410For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website•An older restoration•VCC Certificate of Date and Pioneer Certificate•Eligible for the London-Brighton and Pioneer Runs'Singer Motors are controlled by one lever without releasing the handles. Their strong points are simplicity, reliability, power at hills, and freedom from electrical and transmission troubles. The engine is the finest work put into any motor cycle extant.' – Singer Cycle Co Ltd.The Singer Motor Wheel had been invented by Messrs Edwin Perks and Frank Birch, who took out patents to the design in 1899. Their invention consisted of a small four-stroke engine complete with carburettor, fuel tank, and low-tension magneto, which was housed within an eight-spoked cast-aluminium wheel suitable for attachment to any standard bicycle (at the rear) or tricycle (at the front). The pair began manufacturing the Perks & Birch motor wheel at their Rockland Works premises in Foleshill, Coventry. A close neighbour, the Singer Cycle Company was their main customer, and in 1900 Singer acquired the rights to the P&B Motor Wheel, which they proceeded to improve. Perks and Birch were taken on as Motor Engineer and Foreman respectively. Within a few years though, the Motor Wheel had been superseded by motorcycles of more conventional design with the engine in the bottom-bracket position, driving the rear wheel by chain or belt. Nevertheless, Perks & Birch's engine-in-wheel concept would be periodically revived over the succeeding years by the likes of Cyclemaster, BSA, and Honda.Out of the handful of known survivors, bicycle versions of the Singer Motorwheel are owned by the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu and by the Shuttleworth Collection. Very few tricycles are known of, making this an exceptionally rare machine from motoring's pioneering age. An older restoration, this Singer motorised tricycle should be eligible for both the London-Brighton Veteran Car Run and the Pioneer Run as well as many other events for Veteran cars and motorcycles. Accompanying documentation includes a VCC Certificate of Date, Pioneer Certificate, (part) old-style UK V5 registration document, numerous photographs, a quantity of photocopied literature, and a letter from the previous owner. It should be noted that the number '536' quoted in the VCC dating certificate is stamped on the saddle stem, while '446' is stamped elsewhere on the frame.• Restauration ancienne• Certificat de datation du VCC et Certificat Pioneer• Eligible au Londres-Brighton et au Pioneer RunParmi les quelques machines qui ont survécu, les versions deux roues de la Singer Motorwheel sont détenues par le National Motor Museum à Beaulieu et par la Shuttleworth Collection.

1912 BAT 964cc Model 3 V-twin Motorcycle CombinationFrame no. None VisibleEngine no. 16805For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website•'The Pullman Car' of motorcycling •Purchased circa 1992•Pioneer Certificate'By 1908 BAT was known for its comfort and speed, while it met with success at Brooklands where its build suited the track.' – Bacon & Hallworth, The British Motorcycle Directory.Having had his proposals for improvements in motorcycle design rejected by established makers, Samuel Batson set up business in Penge, South East London to build machines incorporating his ideas. That was in 1902, and one of Batson's first products, ridden by F W Chase, soon set a number of records, giving rise to the company's 'Best After Test' slogan, adopted in 1903. Chase's machine was De Dion-powered but BAT soon switched to MMC and later Minerva. A forecar was introduced in 1904. The company was bought by E H Tessier in 1905 and the following year switched to using engines from JAP, Stevens, and Soncin. Single-cylinder and v-twin models were offered, and BAT would come to use JAP power units exclusively after a few years. The Martinsyde company was acquired in 1923 and the firm traded as BAT-Martinsyde until it ceased production in 1925. In 1912 this BAT combination cost £72 10s plus £15 15s for the Phoenix wicker sidecar, and was advertised as 'The Pullman Car' of motorcycling. The machine features a JAP engine; a two-speed counter-shaft gearbox with clutch; and chain final drive. Other notable features include a Middlemore & Lamplugh 10-12 stone saddle, a foot whistle, and a Bosch magneto. Purchased at a UK auction circa 1992 (catalogue page on file), the machine is offered with an old UK V5 registration document; Sunbeam MCC Pioneer Certificate (issued 1982); a magazine article (in French); a selection of photographs; and some photocopied technical literature. (The dating certificate lists the frame number as '144', as does the V5.)• Le « Pullman » de la moto• Acquise vers 1992• Certificat PioneerAcquise dans une vente aux enchères au Royaume-Uni vers 1992 (page du catalogue au dossier), la machine est proposée avec un ancien document d'immatriculation britannique V5, le certificat Sunbeam MCC Pioneer (émis en 1982), un article de magazine (en français), une sélection de photos et de la littérature technique en photocopies.

1913 Wall Auto-Wheel & Lady's Sparkbrook CycleFrame no. 3350Engine no. 3350For further information on this lot please visit the Bonhams website●An older restoration●Purchased in 1994●One of the most affordable entries into the Pioneer RunMotorised attachments for bicycles were first popularised in the Continent but even before The Great War there were one or two British examples, perhaps the best known being the Wall Auto-Wheel. The latter was the work of A W Wall, of Guildford, who offered a proper motorcycle of his own design during 1903/1904, which was later marketed under the 'Roc' name and produced in Birmingham. Wall's prototype Auto-Wheel appeared around 1909 and the first production version in 1912. Powered by a 118cc four-stroke engine, the Wall Auto-Wheel was mounted in its own tubular frame, complete with fuel tank, and fitted alongside the bicycle's rear wheel, endowing the machine with a top speed of around 15mph on the flat ('light pedal assistance' was required to cope with ascents). Output totalled some 1,750 units in 1913 and 10,000 in 1914, 5,000 of which were produced by BSA, production continuing into the mid-1920s. Wall's advertisements listed HRH Prince George of Battenberg and HRH Prince Henry of Russia as satisfied customers.An older restoration attached to a lady's Sparkbrook cycle, this example was purchased at a UK auction in December 1994.
