Hercules cycle

A vintage Hercules bike with plenty of nice touches like the leather saddle (three springs fit for a king) or the original gear changer (see more pictures on gumtree). Hercules was an English bicycle founded in Aston in 1910. The mascot of Aston Villa football club is called Hercules the Lion after this firm who claimed to be the biggest cycle producing company in the world in the thirties.
