At Roy's. - Eight sidecar models, undoubtedly well-known, but completely transformed for 1936, ranging in size from the 175 to the 350 cmc motorcycles, therefore a specialist in lightweight sidecars. The types are divided into Mouche, Grand Sport, and Grand Routier (with a soft top). Of particular note: The bodywork, with its new lines and fully aerodynamic design, treated using a new process with high-strength materials, has allowed for a maximum reduction in weight; it is one of the lightest on the market; the whole unit weighs only 29 kilograms.
