Olympia Show, 1920
Throughout the Show there is evidence of a widespread desire to cater for the sporting rider, and the new overhead- valved N.U.T. is a
striking example. Possessing one inlet and two exhaust valves per cylinder, the engine is of a special racing type, has aluminium
pistons, and gives, it is claimed, 15 b.h.p. at 4,000 r.p.m. Roller bearings are used for the connecting rods, and very neat detachable
cylinder heads carry the overhead valve gear. The lowest ratio provided by the three-speed Sturmey-Archer gear box is 8 to 1. Spring
forks, mudguarding, and silencing arrangements (according to the makers, "within the law but giving that deep note" !) are on genuine
T.T. lines, but the types are amply large for comfort, and the equipment is unusually complete.
