In 1966 Alex Moulton brought out a 7/8 scale version of his original bicycle called the 'Mini Moulton'........I had a brand new one in 1967 for my tenth birthday in metallic blue! 
Now all the classic Moultons are highly collectible.
Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire.
"Alex Moulton, well-known designer of suspension units for BMC cars including Mini's, has invented the first bicycle with suspension.
Shots of Moulton riding the bike down country lanes. C/U of prototype bike models. Moulton is shown with another man at a drawing board. Moulton holds bits of the bike against the design.
Shots of different stages of bicycle production in the workshop. Outside the completed bikes are lined up, Moulton and Commercial Manager, David Duffield, are seen testing out the suspension mechanisms. The bike has an adjustable seat and no cross bar so anyone can ride it!
Shots of Wendy Holbrook using the bike to go shopping. A man is shown using the 'stowaway' model - he takes the bike apart and places it in the boot of his car. John Tovey - a Moulton employee - demonstrates the racing version along a country road."
