The design and shape of the Lomos “Sesselrad” – a successor to the “Golem” which DKW introduced in 1921 – were clearly influenced by the American motor scooter of the time. This unusual motorcycle with its 1.5 hp two-stroke engine had a cast magnesium frame and quite elaborate suspension; it was unable, however, to achieve any significant market success, as Germany‘s motorcyclists clearly preferred the classic style of motorcycle.
