Bidspirit auction | A vintage child's chain-driven tricycle
A vintage child's chain-driven tricycle with rear cargo bin, circa 1960 - This vintage child's tricycle is attributed to Raleigh and resembles the Sunbeam or Cadet models produced in the mid-20th century. The tricycle is constructed with a red tubular metal frame and a blue pressed-steel rear cargo bin. Unlike standard direct-drive models, this tricycle utilizes a chain-drive mechanism that transfers power from the central pedals to the rear axle. It features three wire-spoked wheels with solid rubber tyres and matching blue metal mudguards. The handlebars are swept-back and retain remains of white plastic grips. Small, multi-coloured character decals are visible on the front fork and the rear of the cargo bin, though the specific manufacturer name is not clearly legible.
