Ariel Arrow

<< back to products

The Ariel Arrow as a "racer" is best remembered for its performance in the TT.   However this may well have been improved if a six speed gearbox had been available at the time.  The gearbox which we have designed and manufactured for the Ariel Arrow fits directly into the standard cases and uses the existing end cover and sandwich plate.

N.B.  This has to be machined to accept the new gearbox cassette plate, or can be offered as an exchange

The gear ratio's are as follows:
