This is Jean Janémian´s fabulous cyclecar, built in Bièvres. Janémian moved to Puteaux in 1924 but was not able to resume production. The car´s wooden main frame member supports the novel front axle with two semi-elliptic springs; 1095cc v-twin engine and rear axle are one unit. 3-speed gearbox, chain drive, and some of these cars had splendid coupé bodywork.

The frame is of wood.
Engin, clutch and transmission are mounted on a yoked frame, the front of the yoke being swiveled on the wood frame.
The construction is such that the power plant and the rear axle form a rigid unit, driving and torque strains being transmitted through this yoke frame member.
The front springs are semi-elliptic, placed crosswise, their inner ends curving upward to form an inverted V.
This construction permits the use of long springs with great freedom of action.
The front axle is secured fore and aft by the triangular wish-bone construction.

This is the Janemian 8 HP cyclecar, built in Bièvres (Seine-et-Oise). The car appeared first at the 1919 Salon de Paris. It was powered by a 1100 cc (75 x 124 mm) engine.

"The construction is such that the power plant and rear axle form a rigid unit, driving and torque strains being transmitted through this yoke frame member.
Front springs are semi-elliptions, placed crosswise, their inner ends curving upwards to form an inverted V.
This construction permits the use of long springs with great freedom of action. The front axle is secured fore and aft by the triangular wish bone construction similar to that used on the Ford."
