Sold for: £4,500.00
1887 Humber Cripper Tricycle
Front plunger brake with its connecting rod concealed in the head tube
40″ Rear Wheels & 22″ Front wheel with solid tyres
This tricycle is in very good all-round condition, having been restored mechanically many years years ago and dry-stored since. It came from a museum. I’ve ridden the tricycle (see my video) and I’ve found it light to steer, stable and responsive. The rear axle is quite primitive, without a differential and with both wheels driven. As is usual with bicycles and tricycles that have this style of chain adjustment on the tube, you need to check the securing bolts are tight before and after a ride.
