A tribe dedicated to the old timer motorised bikes, such as Solex, Mobilette, Berini, etc. Solex was a French manufacturer of carburetors and powered bicycles. The Vélosolex, or Solex, had a small motor mounted above the front wheel. Power was delivered via a small cylinder which turned the front wheel by friction through the tire.
The first Vélosolex was sold in 1946. More than 8 million were eventually sold , mostly in Europe, but it was constructed under license in 57 countries. >>>The *other* famous Solex (the musician) has a tribe here:
