Solex




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, and it was also constructed under license in 57 countries.
