Moulton Automatic

Bicycles and Human-Powered Road Vehicles

The Moulton Automatic was an early F-frame Moulton bicycle of the 1960s, one of the basic range made at the Moulton factory in Bradford-on-Avon or the BMC car factory at Kirkby. The Moulton Bicycle Club says it replaced the Continental, the cheapest Moulton, and that it had a two speed hub and a back pedal brake, which made it a step above the single speed Continental and below the four speed Standard. English Wikipedia lists a Continental and Automatic, numbered M0, among the home-market models produced between 1962 and 1967 alongside the Standard M1, Deluxe M2, Safari M3, Speed M4, Stowaway M5 and Speedsix M6. Like the rest of the range it had small wheels and rubber suspension. The sources read give no further specification for the Automatic.
