Hans F. Messell was a motorcycle dealer in Trondheim who built a motorcycle in the mid-fifties which was driven on the company's trade plates but was not registered. It had an AMC 125cc engine, the frame was probably built in Trondheim and the front hub was two joined brake drums from a Tempo Standard. The machine somewhat resembled a Vincent Comet and was light green in colour.
Messell also built and raced speedway machines, one of which has a 350cc JAP engine and Drott gearbox. His son John restored the machine and it was later donated to the Technical Museum.
Another machine was a racing sidecar outfit powered by a Jawa engine.
