Albi-Sport Motorcycles

Manufactured in France by M Combelles
rue Lapeyrouse, Albi

The 1933 Albi Sport 175cc had a JAP (or AZA) two-stroke engine with a three-speed Burman gearbox. It had hand-shift gear lever mounted on the side of the fuel tank, and the single disc dry clutch is operated by a rotating control on the handlebars.

A forum post reads, "an albi sport 175 of 1933 or its cousin Radior 175 of 1933"

1933 was the year of the first motorcycle race at the new Albi GP circuit in Tarn.
