Re: European lightweights
Rare barn find of a Presto bike with a rare (have you ever heard of it?) Kratzmo engine
Mifa with F48 JLO, Germany
Cyclorex, France. This was a true auxilary engine, the 35cc only joined in if you pedalled, and stopped when you did.
1924 Sheppee Cykelaid, Britain
1949-1951 Hanrez Comet rear mount 63cc engine, Belgium

Re: European lightweights
Russian homebrew with scooter. The builder could have left the chain off, but thought it looked sillier with one fitted

On sale in Ukraine, Comet Unicorn with GX35
And the Comet Triton
And now for something completely different
1935, Russia, bike and sidecar with engine in sidecar and 2wd

Re: European lightweights
So much wonderful motored bicycle goodness. I only found this thread this morning and now I've read it through completely and I feel like I've OD on wildly addictive old bicycle drugs. Wow!
Perhaps it's time to haul an old lugged diamond frame out from under the house, gather up one of my Villiers engines and proceed to do terrible things to them.

I loved seeing the Velosolex pictures by the way. Absolutely delightful since I've only just become a Velosolex girl

Re: European lightweights
No I've only got single speed 98cc Midgets and one sloped finned Atco mower engine (Wish I had more because I like them). I do have a larger pre-war type Villiers single and an Albion gearbox to go with it, but nobody is getting those because they are my precious.......

Re: European lightweights
He's done a bike with the slope fin engine, rather smart, as all his work is.
The pre war, are we talking twin port? If it is, I'm leaving my wife to come and play guitar for you, I could do with a woman in my life with her own tool kit and a twin port.
PS send picture of tool kit.

Re: European lightweights
I do have a pre-war twinport barrel with a piston stuck inside it, but the complete engine I have is a single port. Unfortunately I'm pretty sure that the barrels aren't interchangeable.
Tools? I have ones with interesting names like 'King Dick' and 'Bedford' (not the van) stamped on them along with 'Made in England'.
