In 1933 Triumph introduced the XO in the 150cc class that attracted a favourable duty rating at the time. It featured an inclined, overhead-valve engine and a three-speed gearbox. House in a conventional duplex-loop frame it was lightweight, economical with a top speed of 47 mph. Designer Val Page came to Triumph from Ariel in 1932. He designed an excellent range of motorcycles, of which the 250 cc model was the lightest. Many parts of this model were interchangeable with those of the 350 and 500 cc models; Page was a sincere believer in rationalization in the production process of motorcycles. The new range was introduced for the 1934 season and the new Triumphs proved to be technically excellent machines, although expensive to produce.
