Les produits VÉLOX

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. Velox, one of the oldest exhibitors at the Salon du Cycle, is also said to be one of the youngest, because the house is always distinguished by its innovations and creations appreciated by all. This year the notice picks out two novelties that show off the make’s products to better advantage. The first is the “nécessaire-réparation étui à cigarettes” (repair outfit in a cigarette case), which Velox had the ingenious idea of creating for inner tubes, delivered in a transparent dispenser. The second is the new presentation of the adhesive “Guidoline plastic” (a trademark registered by Velox), which besides the appeal of an original package offers the advantage of unlimited keeping. The notice then names the classic articles made by Velox, whose quality and presentation are said to be universally recognized, in the following list.]

— Dissolution Velox, vulcanisante à froid ;
— Dissolution Velox vulcanisante à chaud ;
— Nécessaire réparation : un choix de quinze modèles en boîtes plastiques et métalliques ;
— Rubans pour guidons Guidoline en tresse et en plastique, adhésif ou non ;
— Rubans pour boyau Boyauléine ;
— Rubans cache-couture Velox ;
— Poignées et hauts de guidons caoutchouc Velox ;
— Poignées et hauts de guidons latex Gompelox ;
— Fil boyau Velox ;
