A Little Engine for a Bicycle from 1947 - Conservative Restoration

Follow
Ego Reficio

This engine was marketed after the Second World War to offer ordinary people the possibility of moving around, using it together with a simple bicycle. In the video, in addition to the restoration process, I will briefly delve into the history of these engines, illustrating the reasons for their birth and the context in which they emerged. While I will be restoring this engine, I will not be following a total restoration approach; rather, I will adopt a conservative method that will preserve its' livedin appearance. The video will end with the completion of the engine restoration, while the second part will focus on its assembly on the bicycle and the related tests
