Hailstones and Ravenhall

R and H was a motorcycle produced in 1923, by Hailstones and Ravenhall, of Coventry, who switched their initials to provide the marque name.

The machine was a neat little miniature with a 147cc Villiers two-stroke engine, two-speed Albion gearbox and chain-cum-belt drive. It was simple in design, but a clutch and kickstarter could be added at extra cost.
