Finally riding a big boys bike
Hi,
New find.
Is it an American or English bike? Has anyone seen the image of a bicycle?
Thanks!

Definitely English.
A little bit of digging has thus far revealed that Kynoch were yet another armaments manufacturer who diversified into bicycle production.
Here's a 1919 ad, courtesy of the V-CC.....

Here are some ads for their "Rambler" brand and Kynoch Cycles themselves......

I haven't yet found a link to a Manchester division yet, or any information on them producing cycles post 1920.
I 'll keep looking.....
 
From looking through the company history it would seem that they abandoned cycle production at some point in 1923.
