Dursley: Alan Sutton, 1978. 0904387291. 1st edition. "The 1880's and 1890's were an interesting period in cycle development with the unstable ordinary or "penny farthing" bicycle giving way to the chain driven smaller wheeled "safety" and a great variety of frame designs appeared on the scene in these two decades. One of the most unusual was the triangulated "Dursley Pedersen", brain-child of an engineer who had other inventions to his credit. Never cheap, and therefore restricted to a wealthy clientele, the cycle aroused considerable controversy among cyclists."

Privately published, 1982. 0950743119. Second edition.

On the other hand it is also hoped that this book will help Moulton owners and devotees to appreciate further the background history and capability of the bike."
