PANTALONS de PARIS
Described by ” Cycling ” as the
only 100 per cent satisfactory
cycling trouser. This introduction
has found great favour
both for its smartness and its
practical design. These Continental

closer lines and have less fall-
over than the true Plus-four.
As a result the garment is kept
clear of the chain and does
not catch the wind or wet.
Under the knee a wide elasticated
band takes the place of
the usual strap and buckle.
These ” Pantalons ” have three
pockets, adjustable elastic backs,
belt loops and also brace
buttons.
Gents 30″—36″.

WORTHY SHOES
ROUTIER. French Shoes are different. No

the back of the heel provides
a good grip whilst the
small flexible stiffening at
the tip of the toe takes any toe-clip pressure. Good sole carried right

WORTHY SWEATERS AND JERSEYS
ROUBAIX. The latest example of continental
knitwear. Made from a special
closeknit all-wool material, which can only

close enough to keep out any wind. A flat
” cheval ” collar finished in heavy woollen
rib to match the vertical bands from
shoulder to waist, give a most distinctive
appearance. Very well received by the
Cycling Press we quote, ” An ideal cycling
or leisure garment, looking equally attractive
for cycling or for evening wear with
a pair of slacks “. This sweater will
retain its shape and smartness for longer
than most. In three shades, Medium

we feel that no sketch
can do justice to the smartness
and quality of this British
knitted sweater. The stitch
used ensures that the garment
will keep its shape and not sag.

a full length zip and the
distinctive flat collar enables
it to be worn with or without
a jacket.
The collar, cuffs and wrists
are trimmed with neat contrasting
bands. Available in

MULTIPLE FREEWHEELS
REGINA GRAN SPORT
The Italian block which is used almost universally on the Continent and in this Country. Suitable for use with all gears it is designed with flush back and narrow body, leaving ample spindle on Quick Release hubs. Claimed to be the smoothest running freewheel, the races, set as far apart as possible, are ground and lapped to take the full amount of ⅛” balls (no spacers). Compare Regina to any other and note the superior finish and smoothness of operation. All cogs detachable 13–28T. The 13 tooth top sprocket requires a different body and second cog to the standard five. Available 13/15 or 13/16, all other cogs are interchangeable.

GEARS (Derailleur)
All Spares Stocked
CAMPAGNOLO
GRAN SPORT GEARS
The ” KING OF GEARS “. Equalled by none; envied by all. Its patented action ensures a rapid and positive change under any conditions. The cantilever arm movement, machined from bronze, obviates the use of a rigid arm which is always liable to accidental damage. The roller bearing cage is fully supported in all positions, being locked to the body instead of ” floating ” on the end of a shaft. Moving parts liable to wear are reduced to four pins which are fitted with phosphor-bronze bushes, whilst the two pulley wheels are of exceedingly
hard-wearing high tensile steel. Altogether, the precision workmanship,
the materials used and the excellent finish combine to produce a gear which will give first class service for a long period.

Walkowiak’s Tour de France triumph and the first two places gained in the Tour of Italy, when the bulk of the field retired with mechanical trouble, backed by four successive
wins in the World’s Cyclo Cross Championships prove the Gran Sport Gear supreme under all conditions.

PEDALS
CAMPAGNOLO. A product
of the Italian engineering firm
which specialises in producing
only the finest cycle components.
Technicians have
carefully designed these pedals
in close co-operation with the
racing men who have tested
the many prototypes. The
result . . . A pedal of outstanding
class . . . first
brought to public notice when
used by leading riders in the
1956 Tour de France.
The highly polished alloy barrel of forged single unit construction,
houses races which, following modern engineering practice, utilise a
special hard chrome finish for exceptional bearing life. The spindle is of
Nickel Chrome ground and polished between centres, the bearing
radius and cone being finished in the same hard chrome as the barrel
races. A friction-free oilseal concealed between the barrel and spindle
combines with the perfectly fitted dust-cap to effectively prevent any
dust penetrating. The frame of best quality steel, exceptionally heavily
chromed, further demonstrates the careful planning behind all Campagnolo
products. Two special clips retain the toe-strap in the correct
position for use and assisted by a small Projection on the back plate,
enable the clip to be ” picked up ” smoothly. Special provision is made
for the correct positioning of the toe clip by two neat chrome-plated
studs set in the front plate. These obviate the necessity of ugly plates
and nuts inside the pedal frame. 52/6 per pair
We confidently offer these as unprecedented pedal perfection.
ALLEZ!
Made from high grade duralumin
alloy. Special toughened
pedal plates for long life.
The barrel and end-plates are
in one piece, so cannot shake

CAMPAGNOLO. A new invention

meticulous adjustment, twin steel bolts
operate through nickel steel clamping
arms to lock the saddle immovably into
position. Taking the place of the
normal seat pin and saddle clip, this
latest Campagnolo product completely
removes the chance of clip breakage
over rough roads and allows the saddle
to be set with a nicety that cannot be
obtained by the usual method. The
clip is finished in dull and polished chrome set into a highly polished pin.

D’Alessandro
Regd. Trade Mark
TUBULARI
Signor D’Alessandro is without doubt the
most experienced maker of tubular tyres on
the Continent. His up-to-date factory in
Milan is entirely devoted to their manufacture
and a new factory has been opened
at Nice to meet the ever increasing demand
from all over the world.
The World Professional Road Championships
won by Steenbergen and the late Stan
Ockers prove the reliability of the heavier
tyres, while the World Sprint and Pursuit
Titles gained during the last five years show
the supreme quality of the lighter range.
The range for 1957 is as follows:
IMPERFORABILE. Recognised everywhere as being ” THE JOB “.
This fine tyre although light will give an incredible number of racing
miles and proves to be an economical purchase for the serious racing
man who competes at all distances. 9¾ ozs. Elastic raw rubber strip
between a very hard rubber tread and the light ” Sea Island ” cotton
pocket, is the secret of its durability and of its amazing resistance to
punctures. Usually with file pattern but can be supplied with matt
tread … … … … … … … … … 76/-
Or with SILK Fabric … … … … … … 89/9
PRIMO. D’Alessandro’s No. 1
tubular. A hand made tyre
with a light fabric carrying the
narrow hard wearing matt
tread. Fitted with an extremely
light ” dimpled ” inner tube
and cotton base tape, this tyre
weighing only 6¾ ozs. is
eminently suitable for pursuits
and fast short distance road
events. Reported in Cycling
as ” more than living up to
their appearance ” they are extremely robust for such a light weight.
62/6
Or with SILK Fabric … … … … … … 78/3
GIRO D’ITALIA. A fine road tyre for hard wear. Not quite so
” pricey ” as the Imperforabile it will never-the-less give many miles
of speedy racing. Narrow black file pattern tread with latex sides.
Weight 10½ ozs. … … … … … … … 62/6
[Folio 34.]
[A script logotype reading D’Alessandro with the words Regd. Trade Mark beneath it, a line drawing of a tubular tire cut open to show its construction, and a drawing of a tubular tire end labeled PRIMO.]

CRITERIUM. This tyre is becoming increasingly popular on all
British hard tracks and also as a fast short distance road tyre. New
finish smooth black tread. Light fabric. Weight 8¼ ozs. … 52/6
IMPERIAL. A reliable light road tyre for all-round work. Narrow
black tread with non-slip design. Latex sides. Weight 12½ ozs. 46/-
LEONE. Still the tyre most in demand in the D’Alessandro range,
this is a strong and reliable tubular. Definitely the most popular
tyre for bunched racing. Narrow file pattern tread with translucent
sides. Rubber base tape. Weight 13¼ ozs. … … … 41/11
BALILLA. The only tyre in this price range which maintains the
livliness expected from a tubular. Tough black file-pattern tread.
Green protective covering to walls. Weight only 14 ozs. … 35/6
WORTHY. (As illustrated). Made
specially by Signor D’Alessandro to my
specification to fill a gap in the British
Market. Large section with prominent
file pattern tread extending well down
the sides. Walls are well protected with
latex dressing. This tyre is ideal for
everyday riding and training and the
deep non-slip tread eminently suitable
for grass track work. Record-breaking
tandem riders have proved that this tyre will corner at any speed.
