On leaving General Motors, he was hired by Derny, a Parisian brand specializing in bicycles and tandems with auxiliary engines, to create their first motorcycle. The result was an atypical 125, with a frame linking the steering column in a straight line to the Ar integrating the headlight, tank, saddle and Ar mudguard. The AMC 2t bv 3 engine is suspended underneath. An Earles-type front fork with quality Lelaurin shock absorbers gives this bike a futuristic look. It was sold in 1957 until the factory closed in 1958, due to a downturn in the French motorcycle market.
