This firm are showing two motor bicycles - one air cooled and one water cooled, fitted in the usual vertical position in a loop frame passing right under the crank chamber. The water-cooled pattern has the combustion head and cylinder cast in one piece; and the radiator, semi-circular in shape, with the usual fins, is placed in front of the steering socket, where it should prove the most effective. The engines appear to be well-finished productions, the air-cooled one being fitted with the latest pattern Longuemare carburetter, while the water-cooled one is supplied with an F.N. (Stand 50a.)
