Greeves

Greeves was a British motorcycle manufacturer that was founded in 1952 by Bert Greeves. The company was known for producing high-quality, reliable motorcycles that were popular with both commuters and sports riders. In the 1950s and 1960s, Greeves began producing trials motorcycles, which were designed to be capable of tackling tough off-road terrain. These bikes were powered by single-cylinder engines and featured lightweight frames, making them agile and capable on the trails. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Greeves continued to develop its range of trials bikes, introducing a number of new models including the TA, the TCS, the TDS, the TES, the TFS, and the TGS. Greeves trials motorcycles were known for their use of innovative front forks, which were designed to provide excellent suspension performance on rough off-road terrain. Greeves' front forks were also notable for their use of a leading-link suspension system. This system used a pair of links that were connected to the front wheel hub and the frame of the bike, allowing the front wheel to move up and down in a more controlled manner. This helped to improve the bike's handling and stability on rough terrain. Greeves stopped production of motorcycles in the 1970s, and the company's legacy as a producer of high-quality motorcycles lives on, with its bikes still highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
