Ruby Cycle Co Ltd

The Ruby Cycle Co Ltd. was a British motorcycle manufacturer based in Ancoats Manchester. Founded in 1909 the factory produced a range of motorcycles under the ''Royal Ruby'' brand until 1932.
==History==
The Ruby Cycle Co. were originally bicycle makers based in Cannel Street, Ancoats surrounded by the Manchester cotton mills and like many bicycle makers of the time turned to producing by motorcycles from 1909. The ''Royal Ruby'' motorcycles were expensive as all the cycle parts were manufactured by the company in Manchester, but engines were brought in from JAP and Villiers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Brief History of the Marque: Royal Ruby )
The range included 250cc 2 strokes and 4 strokes as well an unusual 'Ladies Model' with a specially lowered frame. Top of the range was a 976cc side valve V-twin.〔 During the first world war production at the factory turned to munitions and components to support the war effort, but in 1916 a large export order for the V-twin was commissioned by the Imperial Russian Army. The motorcycles were produced but delivery of the order was disrupted by the outbreak of the Russian Revolution in 1919.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Royal Ruby Motorcycle sidecar combination, 1916 )〕 Although a few motorcycles were delivered to Russia, it was very difficult to obtain payment. After the war ended the British motorcycle market was saturated with ex military machines, so they found it difficult to sell the surplus machines on the home market and the company went bankrupt.〔
The Ruby company was taken over by a new board, and a new factory was built on Moss Lane, Altrincham where production of motorcycles restarted in 1921, together with their own Ruby brand of engines but sales were slow and the company went bust in 1922.〔 It was sold to Albert Horrocks of Bolton in 1927. Horrocks developed a new saddle-tank motorcycle in 1928 with Villiers and JAP engines and Albion and Sturmey-Archer gearboxes. Royal Ruby motorcycle production ended around 1931 but one-off motorcycles may have been assembled from spare parts up to 1933.〔
