A 1923 advertisement for La Moto legere Claude Delage shows a 175cc four-stroke. Motorcycles were built from 1923 to perhaps 1927, when production ceased.
Their motorcycles competed in the Paris-Nice with a two-stroke in 1927 and a 500cc OHV in 1928.
The firm also built bicycles as early as 1913, and marketed the Grillon bicycle marque in 1923. They constructed several automobiles in the final years.
There was no connection to Delage Automobiles
