An ingenious design that originated on the Continent and was built in the UK by EMI, the Cyclemaster wheel - a single-cylinder, two-stroke engine complete with fuel tank, spoked into a heavy-duty rim - replaced the rear wheel of a pedal cycle, thus providing a cheap means of powered transport in the austere 1950s. Originally displacing 25.7cc, the Cyclemaster was enlarged to 32.6cc for 1952, gaining a small but useful power increase in the process. This example is attached to a Raleigh gentleman's cycle and comes with NACC dating letter.
