Alcyon

In 1902, this was complemented by motorcycle production and in 1906, the first cars were shown at the "Salon de l'Automobile" in Paris, France.

Also in 1906 it founded the professional Alcyon cycling team which was active until 1955, including winning the Tour de France 6 times.

However, the car was not a success and did not sell well, so in 1923, Alcyon moved into the production of cyclecars, using 500 cc two-stroke flat-twin engines in a design bought from SIMA-Violet.
