Vintage Tricycles

Description

The tiller tricycle - 19th century (late 1800s). Possibly Western Wheel Works. Good restored condition. The first velocipede tricycles with driving treadles and tiller steering appear to have been made around 1851. The early models had metal wheel rims that did not take a tyre, while later ones were fitted with solid rubber tyres
