Excelsior Autobyk
Excelsior began making penny-farthings way back in 1874 and added motor cycles to their brand in 1896. The Autobyks provided cheap transport to post war Britain with their economical 98cc Villiers or Excelsior's own engines but by 1962 the company was only producing two models,with production ending in 1965. Another classic British marque lost to history.
Taken from 'Motor Cycling', March 1949.
