Overview
Overview
Among the many suggestions, it was preferred because it precisely indicated what the bicycles are: Danish, of English origin. Fredriksen began by building bicycles in the 1890s; for these, he used British parts - hence the hyphenated name. The first cars were light trucks with single-cylinder Belgian Kelecom engines. Later cars were produced with their own design single-cylinder 4-5 hp engines; these featured friction drive using double discs to give an equivalent 12-speed transmission. A few passenger cars were also built with twin-cylinder engines before the company merged with automobile makers Jan and Thrige, which made Triangel commercial vehicles until 1945. About 70 Anglo-Danes were made.
It is associated with Denmark. The record gives 1902 as its date of establishment or first appearance.
