Alldays and Onions
A most interesting exhibit of their new pattern motor cycles, some of which have forecariages[1] attached. Alldays are also showing their latest pattern "Traveller." There are many special features and inventions throughout this exhibit. The bicycle motor is made wholly by Messrs. Alldays and Onions, and all parts are interchangeable. The frame is designed with a special cradle (registered) for carrying the motor in an upright position.
The tank has compartments for two accumulators, coil, lubricating oil, and sufficient petrol for one hundred and sixty miles. A float register is provided, and is always visible; for showing the quantity of petrol in the tank. The weight of the machine complete does not exceed no lbs. The machines fitted with forecariages are strongly built, and a specially designed frame is constructed for carrying a well-finished and smartly upholstered bucket seat. The "Travellers" will be shown in two styles, viz., one with seat for two passengers at the back, with a box in front for luggage (the box is detachable and can be replaced by a seat for one passenger), and the other fitted up for three passengers. The speciality of these machines is their hill-climbing capabilities and their economical and inexpensive up-keep.
N.B. 1. "forecariages" is the spelling used twice on the original page. The word is correctly spelled throughout the remainder of the article.
Report from the 1903 Stanley Show
Messrs. Alldays and Onions will have an interesting exhibit of their new pattern motorcycles and fore-carriages at Stand 95, Stanley Show. They are also showing their latest pattern "Traveller Voiturette." The motor-bicycle is made throughout by Messrs. Alldays and Onions, and all parts are interchangeable. The frame is designed with a special cradle (registered) for carrying the motor in an upright position. Lugs are provided on the crank case which correspond with faces on the cradle, and are securely held by four bolts. This invention affords great strength to the frame and rigidity of the motor, and obviates the necessity of clamping to or bending tubes. The tank has compartments for two accumulators, coil, lubricating oil, and sufficient petrol for 160 miles. A float register is provided and always visible for showing the quantity of petrol in the tank. The weight of the machine complete does not exceed 110lbs.
The machines fitted with fore-carriages are strongly built, and a specially designed frame is constructed for carrying a well-finished and smartly upholstered bucket seat. The "Traveller Voiturette" is one that particularly appeals to the man of moderate means.
