Established in 1897 as a cycle manufacturer, formerly known as Hotchkiss, Mayo and Meek at Hill Cross Works, Coventry; when Hotchkiss died and John Meek left the company, it came under the control of Edmund Mayo and Bernard Rotherham and moved to Lincoln Street becoming the Coventry Eagle Cycle Co. The company produced motorcycles between 1899 and 1940.
This 1925 Coventry Eagle S29 has formed part of a collection of motorcycles that the late vendor was storing away. Purchased many years ago in its current condition, it saw no use before it was placed in the attic of a barn with the other machines collected. A mostly complete machine, it would make a good VMCC eligible example. It is offered with a current V5C Registration Document.
