STURMEY ARCHER EXHIBITS Among the features of the Automob'le <how are the exhibits of t)ieSturmey Archer Co. } A' the Stand ?o.?:.{therear6t;hc\vn the three speed counter shaft gear, and tho two speed counter shaft; gear for tuotor cycle-tt<r)))'oe';peed]t)]b.aud the three speed tri-easter for cycles. Each of i re eut open to show the working parts, and very little explanation is required for anyone of a mechanical fnrn of mind to grasp the ine'hod in which* the gears work and to appreciate the several distinct advan- tages which are claimed by the Sturmey Archer over other makes of variable gea rs. The three speed counter shaft gear which has done such wonderful work in every battle area dunng the war is per- haps too well knowlI to make any long description necessary, The flnly slight alteration that has been made recently /is i:i the cohtrol. -peciijiens of which will be seen on the .-tand. Interest will be specially centred in the new two speed counter shaft gear which is intended for use on light weight motor cycles. In the main principle tlii.- is similar to the three .speed, the gears being in mesh all the time, and the change being ailcc-ted by sliding dogs. Important t'teps are being taken next year to further '^crease the output both of the countershaft aDd three speed gear.- which have gained ;n popularity from year to year, and proved such a boon to motor cyclists and eyelets throughout the world.
