The 1922 DKWLomos-Sesselrad 170 cc, a slightly uprated version, features a 169.6cc engine. While specific performance figures are not available, the larger displacement suggests a modest improvement in power and torque compared to the 142.5cc model. This could translate to better acceleration and the ability to handle minor inclines with greater ease. Similar to its smaller sibling, the ergonomics would likely be upright and comfortable, designed for practicality rather than sporty riding. The front drum brake, as the sole braking mechanism, emphasizes the importance of careful speed management. The target rider would likely be someone seeking a slightly more capable version of the basic DKWLomos-Sesselrad, perhaps for slightly longer journeys or carrying light loads. This model represents a modest upgrade in performance within the DKWLomos-Sesselrad range, offering a subtle increase in engine capacity for riders who needed a bit more power. It retains the charm and simplicity of its era, appealing to enthusiasts of early motorcycle engineering.
