Schwalbe

Simson KR51/1 'Schwalbe'

When I was first in Berlin over thirty years ago these mopeds were to be found practically everywhere. They were cheap and cheerful and were churned out by the thousands from the Simson factory in Suhl in the GDR.

I’d quite like to get my hands on one even now. Don’t ask me why.
