This early Premier safety is in very original unrestored condition. The marque specialist suggests that it may be a German or American model because of its tangent spoking, which would be unusual in 1888 on a Coventry machine.
With its wonderful saddle frame, open steering, left-hand chainwheel and bottom bracket chain adjustment, this is a fabulous example of the first generation of chain-driven safety bicycles.
