Lambretta Model C

The C is seen as a more reliable bike than previous models although it remained very similar to its predecessors.

A 3 speed gearbox was also used as with the other models but the frame was made of a single piece of tube.

The Model C had drum brakes, Front and Rear, and the head light was mounted on the front of the frame below the handlebars and the rear light was smaller and placed above the number plate.

The Model C came with many more options than previous versions including rear seat, bolt on leg shields, a horn cover, speedometer, floor mats and a spare wheel.

[3] The Model LC was a Model C with full leg shields, side panels and rear running boards, the first Lambretta to do so, the 'L' stands for Lusso, meaning luxury in English.
