Chip C Toronto Dear Chip, Luckily, the factory's wheels, shafts, and belts were immaculate, so no covers were needed: http://i32.tinypic.com/11vgyol.jpg It's from the same book, showing the "interior of C.S. Rolls & Co.'s workshops at Lillie Hall, West Brompton. Established in 1902 . . ." C.S. Rolls was a bike enthusiast he wandered off into automobiles and airplanes: http://www.scienceandsociety.co.uk/r...g=2&imagepos=6 The huge sprocket was presumably for drafting a pacer.
