New 2020 Matchless ?
It is said, in the 1800's the Matchless penny farthing bicycle had connections with the Singer sewing machine company. The Colliers claimed the name when they noticed Singers claim to the name had lapsed. Had Signer not let the claim to the name lapse and continued on to make motor cycles, would today's Matchless look like this?
