Hi All: Anyone ever hear about this company. So far I know that they manufactured bicycles, frames, forks and seat and chain stays. Manufacturing began in 1953. Guess, would like to know what happened to them. thanks

I remember a bicycle factory in Santry in the seventies. It made "Eska" bicycles and it was located where the industrial est is now. I can't remember exactly when it closed down but I'd guess that it was mid-seventies.The lumber company "Noyeks" moved into the factory after the bike factory closed down. I've no idea if it was called the Irish Cycle Corporation, but it would seem unlikely that there were two bike factories in the one area.
