This is to be the last book revealing the specifications and some of the
history of the ’classic’ Moulton bicycle which was either sold,
assembled or manufactured overseas between 1964 and 1971.
When the Moulton was launched in November 1962 it took the bicycle world by storm. It was revolutionary. It was trendy.
It was different! Very quickly the Moulton Bicycle Company in
Bradford-on-Avon was inundated with enquiries and requests from around
the world. These ranged from individual owners wanting to purchase
single machines, companies wishing to sell them to manufacturers hoping
to get a licence to build them in their own country.
Read how different countries had the exported machines tailored to their
individual needs and territorial requirements. Find out how companies
abroad received C.K.D. (completely knocked down) kits for local assembly
and sale in their own country. Discover who manufactured complete
‘classic’ Moulton bicycles (except for the suspension units) for their
home market and how they differed from a U.K. specification machine.
There are sections describing two previously unknown Moultons. What was
the Bianchi Moulton? How did a Fuji Moulton mini survive unheard of for
over 40 years? You can find out the answers to these questions and more
in ‘Classic’ Moultons abroad!
