One of the most sought after antiques around today.
The 1912 catalog from the Miami Cycle & Manufacturing Company in Middleton Ohio touts the company’s Flying Merkel motorcycle as “The Only Motorcycle with a Spring Frame and a Spring Fork.”
While the Flying Merkel is one of the most sought-after antiques around today, in 1912, it was just one of dozens of motorcycles being produced in the United States. The Miami Cycle & Manufacturing Company was actually the third company to produce the Flying Merkel.
