In the reckless efforts of many makers to produce light bicycles, the margin of safety has been reduced to the danger point. Only the most thorough testing of each piece by scientific methods is a guarantee upon which an innocent public may rely. Our greatest essential is the use of crucible steel, a material very expensive to obtain and far "more expensive to work. In Victor bicycles, all balls, cones, rear spocket and hub, brake levers, cranks and many other parts are made of crucible steel. We believe the Victor rear hub is the only bicycle hub in existence made of crucible steel. These parts are hardened in oil, giving them an even hardness throughout.
