"CIk Wheels that made 

 the 'ghainless' a Success 



CLIPPER CHAINLESS models 5 and 6 ($75.00) 

 are lighter than any heretofore offered. The 

 Leland and Falconer Gears used in these styles 

 are smaller, lighter, and neater; the tread is 

 narrower, the entire wheel is closer and lighter built, 

 having been designed for those who want a fine, light, 

 high-grade Chainless of the finest possible grade. 

 Clipper Bevel Gears, although accurately cut and per- 

 fectly generated after being hardened, actually impiove 

 with use. Many people doubt the possibility of gener- 

 ating a bevel gear after hardening. We are not sur- 

 prised at this. The process was a difficult one, but Mr. 

 Leland solved it, and solved it correctly; his machines 

 do work such as was never before done. The Clipper 

 people recognized this and were the first to adopt them. 

 Clipper Bicycles are made right; the gears are correctly 

 mounted ; the frames are stiff. The gears will not bind, 

 grind nor break; the "cogs cannot slip." The bicycle 

 will please you; the price is $75.00, and it's worth every 

 cent of it; ask any Clipper Chainless rider if this is 

 is not so. Send for catalogue. It's free. . •. . *.
