Hercules, Ladies and Gentlemen

In this video we talked about Vintage Hercules, Ladies and Gentlemen Bicycles.

On Oh Today we are going to talk about hairus bicycles as you can see here there are two headest bicycles one of them is for ladies and the other one is for Gentlemen let’s have a look at these two bicycles and talk about them as you can see they are definitely Hercules HC Hercules

Bicycles you can see that they are definitely Hercules the emblems is there these Hercules bicycles about these two bicycles as you can see there are similarities but the differences as well this bicycle is for ladies is Balmoral Hercules for ladies and that one is Balmoral hercus for gentlemen why because we have this

Crossbar so when we look at the two bicycles there are similarities but differences and you can see which one is original which one is not original fully original when you look at this for example the front guard can you see that the end bit is like

That can you see that and also can you see the uh chain guard is like that there is a hel zum on it and it’s it comes like that and you can’t the crank very carefully now what you do you look at this one that on the front M guard is pointed

I put this on later on when I was restoring it and I just wonder is this the original or that the original that’s what is probably the original M guard or the culus on the other hand can you look at this chain guard chain guard this bicycle didn’t

Have any chain guard so I put this on but the original is like this as you can see with Hercules em is like that this is thinner and you know there are some FS inside going in there when you look at the crank the crank all is

Bicycle and the crank on that one they are the same they are exactly the same on the other hand when you look at the pedals these pedals although there is a rally em on them they are original they are original pedals on this one let’s have a look at this one these pedals

Are not original put on later on they are not original but they are the Vintage type pedals so most probably the original pedals of these bicycles are this on the other hand when you get when you look at the um the wheels the detail of the wheels they are

Like this there’s a little hum here but then you when you look at on this one it’s flat this I know that they are original Wheels frames rims but you know there’s a difference between these two on the other hand when you look at these two bicycles you see that the um for

Example the rear reflector here can you see the rear reflector this is original rear reflector but that one I put this later on it’s not original it’s adap to it on the other hand when you look at the seat this is its original seat can you see that it’s original seat or this

Bicycle original seat it’s been covered and on the other hand there is a seat on this bicycle which is fairly old can be original but it might not be it might not be but it’s fairly old seat that we have there when we look look at other things that we see the differences

For example the uh these holders here they are more the original but these ones are slightly different they are wi in color but they are you know the similar there is a you know on this one although Hercules there a rally ampem on here and you see that and when we look

At it the EM of the uh lump holder is like that it’s slightly different and when we look at this one is like this it’s a little different so there are differences what happens with bikes in time sometimes when Parts you cannot find parts you put other parts on it but

When you look at these the two bicycles you see that they are mostly original but there are some differences so these are two important bicycles when you look at that one this is a ladies bicycle bicycle because there is no crossbar here L this bicycle and also can you see

This can you see this this is short on this one this part is longer probably this bicycle is for to people because the bicycle is gone up it’s a very nice bicycle so uh today I I wanted to show you these two bicycles two Hercules bicycles they are vintage

Bicycles this is for sure is 74 I’m sure it’s 74 because it’s written on the H this one is around that time but for sure I wouldn’t be able to tell you which year it is Mo up Le 70s so these two bicycles are very important can you

See that this is very important Hercules Hercules the king em there Hercules Balmoral can you see that this one is balmor same writing I should say I should put a you know writing here Hercules and writing here hercul complete the decoration of the bicycle so this is two bicycles Hercules
