George Singer (1846 – 4 January 1909) was an English cycle manufacturer who was a pioneer of both cycle and automobile development.

He served an apprenticeship at Penn's Engineering Works in Greenwich and in 1869 he moved to Coventry to work at the Coventry Machinist Company.

[1] Around 1874 he started his own company to manufacture cycles, Singer & Co, in 1894 that became Singer & Co Ltd, and in 1896 the Singer Cycle Company, that soon grew into a large business and also in 1896, at the height of popularity for cycles, he floated his business as a company with a capital of £700,000 reverting to Singer & Co Ltd.[1] The development of forks with curves is attributed to him.

[1] He resigned from the council in 1898 as his interests were more with philanthropy and charity than politics.

[1] Singer died on 4 January 1909, aged 62 at his home at Coundon Court in Coventry.
