A. Brossard / Le “3 Vitesses.” 1904.
In one of Barrère’s more lovely posters, we are presented with yet another innovation in bicycle science: the ability to select one of three speeds. So easy, even the weakest of females can glide aimlessly through the countryside without overexertion, this optional feature is adaptable to all models and promises to reduce fatigue entirely.
