Locations Warwick (1239) Subjects Cycles (99)Sport and Sporting Clubs (48) Date 1910-1919 Comments Reply All of the bicycles shown in this image date to the 1890s before the freewheel came into popular use. They have fixed wheel gearing and front plunger brakes. I would date this picture to C. 1896 rather than 1910s.
