An interesting headbadge, for which I cannot find any reference to or images of after much searching the internet. Taken from the following web site http://www.tricyclefetish.com/cyclops.phphttp://www.tricyclefetish.com/cyclops.php "The middle of 1971 came the news of the financial collapse of Lines Bros. Fortunately for the Australian operation of Cyclops Tri-ang, as it was then known, Tube investments (T. I. Ltd.) purchased the group and so Cyclops could continue business as usual." |
Incorporated in New South Wales in 1916 as Cyclops & Lines Bros.
(Aust) Limited, manufacturer and distributor of toys, pedal cars,
children's tricycles and bicycles.
Later changed name to Cyclops Tri-Ang (Aust) Limited, and finally taken
over by Raleigh, before going out of business in 1992.
