British Salmson Ltd.

The manufacturers of the Cyclaid used to make aero engines and cars at their factory in Raynes Park, London before WWII and were known as British Salmson. The Cyclaids were made at their Lanarkshire factory and were sold between 1950 and 1956. The original design was German: to manufacture the Cyclaid, a licence was purchased for Rex clip-on engine. First 200 engines had "German type castings" and Bosch magnetos (British engines were typically sold with the Wipac Bantamag). Still, the engine was advertised as British product.
