In the early 1950's Francis Barnet, by now part of AMC, were one of the leading trials 2-strokes. These machines were powered by Villiers engines, they were not powerful but were light and manoeuvrable. In 1953 Arthur Scott won the Yorkshire Scott Trial and George Fisher came 2nd in the 1955 Scottish Six Day trial.
This example, a period correct Competition frame, has been restored by our vendor with four speed Albion gearbox, a powder coated frame and rims, which have stainless steel spokes. Occasionally fired up and ridden around the garden this machine presents very well.
