Is it a CCM or what?

Submitted by DadsCCM on Fri, 09/23/2011 - 08:24

I have started to restore my dads old bike. He got it from his uncle in about 1937, and I was always told it was a CCM. However, the number stamped under the crank is 92158, and doesn't correspond to any CCM numbers I have seen. This bike looks just like a 1937 Redbird, has 28" x 1 1/2" wheels, and the CCM looking fenders. Could it be an off brand, built for Eatons etc., or even a military bike, as his uncle was in the RCAF? The serial number has me stumped, and I am not really familiar with bikes. Can anyone provide any leads or info?

When you want to ID a bike take a full shot from the chainring side.

The chainring itself.

The head badge or where the head badge should be.

The serial numbers

The drop outs

Anything else of intrest
