Introduction Reads :
A good bicycle .. Every cyclist naturally desires to ride with the greatest ease, the highest degree of comfort, and the sense of security in steering and braking control that is part of the make-up of the high-class bicycle. When you purchase a Hercules Cycle you automatically acquire those qualities hidden under the enamel and plating, and concealed in the finely machined and designed bearings.
It is almost impossible to "show" anyone the difference between the best and the "not quite so good", you have to "feel" it to experience its satisfaction. It is from practical experience that we say "buy a cycle which is backed by the largest organization in the world", for then you are quite sure of the highest value in exchange for your money, and the greatest satisfaction from your indulgence in the pastime.
