  • Improved governor with weights screwed onto the inside of the governor spring.
  • Note the Junior B introduces the "Twist" mechanism to control the governor. All later models have this system. "..not really an improvement, just a cheaper and simpler system. In theory, it would give a less progressive control of speed, because it works by twisting the friction pad, so that the area in contact with the disc will alter significantly when the lever is moved." Christopher Proudfoot
