The Ruby Cycle Co Ltd, was a British motorcycle manufacturer based in Ancoats Manchester. Founded in 1909 the factory produced a range of motorcycles under the Royal Ruby brand until 1932. The Royal Ruby motorcycles were expensive as all the cycle parts were manufactured by the company in Manchester, but engines were brought in from JAP and Villiers. The range included 250cc 2 strokes and 4 strokes as well as an unusual 'Ladies Model' with a specially lowered frame.
This little Royal Ruby is indeed a rare survivor today. Equipped with a 250cc Villiers engine, this charming example has been restored a while ago and has formed part of a collection. It will require some light recommissioning before use, but it is offered with a current V5C.
