Renolds....Renolds Chains Limited.....a look at the drive chains used on motorcycles and details of the sizes used on Velocettes from 1931 to 1970....

Renolds Chain Manufacturers, The Renold and Coventry Chain Company Limited have been manufacturers of drive chains for motorcycles and other uses since before 1931...well that's the earliest catalogue I have.....
So this is a brief perusal of a small booklet published by Renolds in 1935 and lists of the drive chain sizes for Velocette motorcycles from 1931 to 1970....and Veloce Ltd, manufacturers of Velocette from 1905 who went into liquidation in February 1971 and ceased making Velocette motorcycles at that time.....
The number to the far right in the lists is the number of pitches or complete links, including the connecting link used for that model.
