WARRICK TRICAR, No. 86.
John Warrick and Co., St. Mary's Butts, Reading, and 402-6, Edgware Road, W. – The engine is carried under the rear seat and is provided with two outside flywheels, which drive aluminium fans, these are friction driven and kept close np against the flywheel by means of springs on the brackets which carry them. An oil reservoir is integrally cast with the crank chamber, and the oil is allowed to flow into the engine by depressing a pedal conveniently situated near the rider's heel. The steering is by tiller, which carries the carburetter control, and adjacent to it is the change-speed lever. The rear wheel is suspended on laminated springs. The front wheels are carried by semi-elliptical springs.
