There seems to have been an English made Meteor, as well as a German Meteor, but they don't seem to have any relation to "cycles Meteore". Its difficult to date these sort of bikes, they remained unchanged for many years.

I too know nothing of the bike but I'll say it looks cool.

Hi paulisatx, looking at the pics of that French bike, I'm pretty sure, that it's from the 1930's. Not a 100% sure, but it's definitely pre-war (WW2). Good luck on your search for more info.

so there are 2 kinds of meteore bicycles. one from germany and one from france or french made. my guess would be france since it actually says paris on it. i noticed the holes on the fenders and from some other stuff i have learned is that those where to have some sort of spokes in it to block dresses and skirts from getting into the spokes of the tires as the girl was riding the bike. i did however noticed online that i can find tons of old meteore cycles sign art and stuff like that but actually havent even found a bike online that is a meteore cycle. thanks for your help guys.

if anyone knows anything else please fee free to message me.

I saw a similar bike for sale in France, so if know someone who speaks or writes in French, you might discover more about yours. It's on E-bay. So I threw in the link as well. Good luck on your quest.
