Bicycles

Archive Drawings from 1924 to 1958

The brand was founded by Willian Chater Lea in 1890 producing bicycles, which became the core of their business, even after the obligatory dip into motorcycles and cars that most bicycle brands of the time went through. The brand relaunched in 2019 with a focus on high quality British made cycling components.
