1931 Fenton Zip Special Lightweight Juvenile Sidecar

The Fenton Zip bicycle sidecar is currently set up on one of my motorcycles, a 98cc 1935 German Triumph TS100.

This is a strange motorcycle, the only known example: it’s a lightweight machine with a Fichtel & Sachs engine, styled as a miniature 1920s flat tank Triumph. In photos, it’s hard to gauge the scale, so the small sidecar gives it the appearance of a large motorcycle.
