The Mobylette is a type of motorcycle that was manufactured in the mid-TWENTIETH century, and had great popularity.
At the beginning of the 1920s, Charles Benoit and Abel Bardin worked in SICAM (Société Industrielle de Construction d'auto et de Moteurs).
In 1923 they left the factory, and is associated creating their own brand called "Motobécane". The following year appeared the first moticicleta, the MB1 engine single cylinder two-stroke 175 cc. with strap.
