Les alliages CÉGÉDUR
[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The Compagnie Générale du Duralumin et du Cuivre “Cégédur” has put all the possibilities of light alloys at the disposal of the cycle and motorcycle industry. Whether for cycles, motorized or not, scooters or classic motorcycles, light alloys combine lightness and elegance with strength. The high mechanical characteristics of duralumin recommend it for stems (potences), hubs (moyeux), chainrings (plateaux), cranks (manivelles) and so on. The fine polish, ease of upkeep and resistance of duralinox suit it to handlebars, rims, mudguards, crankcases, fairings, tanks and all accessories (caps, lighting, horns, pumps, luggage carriers and so on).]
[A short column notice in a trade magazine, text only. The heading “Les alliages CÉGÉDUR” is set at the upper right in bold roman type with the name in capitals. The text below is in italic roman, with the company name in plain roman and small capitals and one phrase in bold roman. There are no drawings, no photographs, no signature, no address line and no stand number.]
