  • Coventry-Eagle is een Brits historisch merk van motorfietsen. De bedrijfsnaam was: The Coventry-Eagle Motor Co., later The Coventry-Eagle Cycle & Motor Cycle Co., Coventry. Dit was de voormalige fietsenfabriek van de familie Mayo, die uit het victoriaans tijdperk stamde en vanaf 1901 motorfietsen maakte met 98- tot 998cc-blokken van Villiers, JAP, Sturmey-Archer, Blackburne en Matchless. Deze machines hadden een behoorlijke kwaliteit, waardoor het merk het langer volhield dan de meeste concurrenten die inbouwmotoren gebruikten. (nl)

  • Coventry-Eagle was a British bicycle and motorcycle manufacturer. Established as a Victorian bicycle maker, the company began under the name of Hotchkiss, Mayo & Meek. The company name was changed to Coventry Eagle in 1897 when John Meek left the company . By 1898 they had begun to experiment with motorised vehicles and by 1899, had produced their first motorcycle. The motorcycles were hand built from components and finished carefully, Coventry-Eagle motorcycles proved reliable and by the First World War the range included Villiers Engineering and JAP engines. During the early 1920s, the models changed depending on what engines were available and the company swapped between five engine manufacturers - Villiers, JAP, Sturmey-Archer, Blackburne and Matchless. The model Flying 8 bore a resemblance to the contemporary Brough Superior. During the depression of the 1930s, the company concentrated on producing two-strokes. Production continued until the start of the Second World War in 1939. In the 1930s they had launched a range of sporting bikes under the "Falcon" brand. After the war, and not of a scale to continue competitive motorcycle manufacture, the company concentrated on their racing bicycles. It was under this marque that the company relaunched itself as Falcon Cycles, now a division of Tandem Group. (en)
