Re: Tactical 80 years ago
The bike was to get soldiers to needed area's quickly and the wheels to beat punctures.
Note the spring loaded rims.
Must have turned some heads in its day, technology! Must have made the old boys shake their heads and mutter about the new fangled contraptions of modern times.

That’s the kind of bike Danie Joubert used.
Don’t take life too seriously, no one gets out alive.
