Title: Bicycles Too? Or Motorbikes Only?
Post by: Ratspeed on October 24, 2023, 06:56:41 PM
Hello! Just wanted to introduce myself. Took a bit to get registered and approved! I couldn't see any pictures before registering, so I wasn't able to confirm beforehand: What is the name of this forum, and do you only talk about motorcycles from Simplex? Or do you discuss their vintage bicycles as well? I have a kruisframe from Azor, and I was curious about learning more about the history of the company and the model bicycles they produced, including the style I own.

Thanks!

This forum is mostly for Simplex Servi-Cycles.  While they did build a bicycle for a short period of time, I doubt they built more than a couple hundred.  There are many companies that used the Simplex name, but the one we deal with here is The Simplex Manufacturing Co, of New Orleans.

Bob, it appears he has a Dutch Simplex bicycle.
