MOTOBECANE
Type AV 32 "moped
Serial number: 520080
Collector's registration
100 / 200 €
The appearance of this range was in response to the need to provide the middle classes with economical and efficient means of locomotion, whereas at the end of the war, the majority of Europeans travelled by bicycle and the automobile was a means of transport reserved for the wealthiest. Motobécane was based on the principle of a welded tubular frame fitted with a small-displacement engine (less than 50 cm3), which could still be used in bicycle mode1. The engine is mounted under the down tube, and the fuel tank between the seat tube and rear mudguard. Initially technically close to the mechanicals of the 1930s, AV3s evolved into much more sophisticated machines equipped with drum brakes, telescopic forks, automatic clutch and even a variable speed drive.
