1929 Austro Daimler bicycle

On holiday in Slovenia recently I came across this rather lovely 1929 Austro Daimler cycle in an antique shop in the city of Ptuj. The condition was wonderfully original with wooden handlebar grips, frame fitting leather toolbag, lighting set and Slovenian bicycle licence plate. Thankfully for my wallet it was already sold or I would have left 350 euros lighter!

Tricycle and pedal car probably from the 1900s.

Maybe I shouldn't admit this in public but I bought this BSA (it was cheap) because I had a Cyclo derallieur on the shelf and the frame has the right braze on to suit it. I concede that most folks might have parted with the gearset and lived happily ever after but I wanted to fit one and see how well it works. Plus this is quite a nice pre-war frame even if it is slightly small for me...
