James Starley
James Starley (21 April 1831 – 17 June 1881)〔(James Starley ) findagrave.com〕 was an English inventor and father of the bicycle industry. He was one of the most innovative and successful builders of bicycles and tricycles. His inventions include the differential gear and the perfection of the bicycle chain drive.
==Early life==
Starley was born in 1831 at Albourne, Sussex,〔The Bicycle, UK, 4 November 1953, p8〕 the son of Daniel Starley, a farmer. He began working on the farm at nine, showing early talent as an inventor by making a rat trap from an umbrella rip and a branch of a willow tree.〔 He ran away from home as a teenager and went to Lewisham, in south London. There he worked as an under-gardener, in his spare time mending watches and creating devices such as a mechanism to allow a duck to get through a hole in a fence, closing a door behind it if a rat tried to follow.〔
