Cycling & Motorcycling

Cycles and associated items have been at the core of our business since our very first sale. We have exceptional experience in the world of Veteran & Vintage Cycling, holding the record price for a Velocipede (£56,000 for a c1870 Peyton & Peyton treadle operated example).

Cycle ephemera and accessories are another area of great strength. Our founder Peter Card is a noted authority on early cycle lighting, publishing several books on the subject, whilst Laura Brown has a worldwide reputation in cycle sales.

As such we can rightly consider ourselves the market leaders in the sale of Veteran & Vintage Cycling.

Motor Cycles are the logical progression of cycles and the pre war era is one of the most exciting eras of motorcycling. From the pioneering motorised tricycles / forecars of De Dion Bouton and Leon Bolllee through to flat tanks and the more familiar designs of the 1930s. Laura is also our lead on motorcycling, and is a regular rider of a highly original 1923 BSA Model L and a 1927 Rudge outfit.
