Macal began manufacturing bicycles and parts thereof, before turning to motorcycle production in 1958. A range of machines evolved, including mopeds and various motorcycles of differing capacities.

This machine features a Zundapp two-stroke air-cooled engine fitted with a Dellorto carburettor. It has a tubular frame with box-section swinging arm rear suspension, and twin shock absorbers. There are drum brakes front and rear. The petrol tank is steel, with mudguards, and side panels in metal. Exhaust system is an expansion box-type. There are no documents, and it will require some re-commissioning prior to further use. Whilst the engine turns, its mechanical condition is unknown, and it is sold strictly as viewed.
