Charles James Reynolds
1885 of Bow, wrote to The Engineer, about works he supervised where bolts were put through the wall of a canal[1]
1886 Purchased the goodwill of Hickling and Co and carried on the business until 1900.
1890 The 'Pilot' light-roadster bicycle, made by the Pilot Cycle Co., Maidenhead, was fitted with C. J. Reynolds's triangulated system of spoking, Patent No. 3775/1889. This system was advertised as “The wheel of the future." In company with other riders of the 'ordinary.' I tested the Reynolds triangulated wheel and found it too rigid and un-yielding to be either speedy or comfortable (according to a correspondent on the Stanley Cycle Show).
