DESCRIPTION

In 1966 Triumph made a desperate attempt to maintain a share of the UK motorbike market and moved production of the existing Tiger Cub from the Triumph factory in Meriden, Coventry, to the BSA plant at Armoury Road in Small Heath, Birmingham. The Cub engines continued to be built at Meriden, but they were transported to Small Heath where they were fitted into Bantam frames.

So, using the latest 199cc Cub engine in a Bantam D7 frame, the Triumph T20 'Bantam Cub' was born. Later versions were based on the Bantam D10 and branded the 'Super Cub'. However, these models are often still referred to as Bantam Cubs.

For many people the Bantam Cub provided the best of both worlds. The Cub engine was a powerful unit for it's size with plenty of torque. The Bantam frame offered superior handling with it's longer wheel-base and stronger frame.

This 1966 model had a full engine rebuild in 2014 by Mick Hemmings and is offered with history file, V5 and current MOT.
