Description
The Stinkwheel Saga Episode 1 v3 reprint is now exhausted and no stock is available. It is possible we may go for another reprint in 2020. Watch this space!
The text of this new third edition of The Stinkwheel Saga, Episode 1, first published in 2004, has been extensively amended and expanded to include new material and images not available to us for the first edition. This book now contains newly-discovered period colour images plus many others originally published in black & white in the first version. A complete redesign of page layouts has also improved presentation of photos and drawings. The Stinkwheel Saga Episode 1 v3 is an in-depth look at the nine most popular clip-on cyclemotors sold in quantity in Britain during the period 1945-1959 and was chosen as one of Classic Bike magazine’s ‘Best Books of 2004.’
The Stinkwheel Saga books remain the only comprehensive reference works published on the subject of the clip-on cyclemotor engines which were so popular for a brief period in the aftermath of the Second World War.
The Stinkwheel Saga Episode 2, covering less well-known makes of cyclemotors and individual efforts, is unfortunately no longer available in printed or e-book form.
