Comfort 1957-1958, 49cc Sachs, 2-stroke single: This moped went into production with a Sachs engine having two or three hand operated gears. There was also a similar model called the Swing that had a special “swing fork” and also fan cooling; which was made until 1960.
The very first motorised thing I ever rode was a slightly older version of the moped on this image. It was grey, had two hand operated gears and you started it by pedalling away like you rode a bicycle. I was 8, and my love of anything motorized was born – Ted
