The Moulton S Speed was introduced in 1966 as the top of the low-volume, high-specification S range that Moulton built in a small separate workshop in Bradford-on-Avon, apart from the mass-production bicycles made at the British Motor Corporation factory at Kirkby. The company describes it as a true racing bicycle, with double chainrings, a short wheelbase and a lightweight Reynolds 531 tubeset. It followed the Speedsix, the first mass-produced bicycle of any type to carry a six-speed derailleur. Together with the S Deluxe, S Safari and S Stowaway it formed the small hand-built range of Alex Moulton's original F-frame era.
