Introductions

Thank you for adding me to your group, much appreciated.

Hello people,

I am doing some genealogical research and have learned that my Great Uncle was in the bicycle manufacturing business, and I am trying to gather as much information as possible.

The brand was McCready Bicycles established during the late 1800's in Ontario. I've gathered that it produced a number of models, and have found 1 ad which curiously doesn't even show a bicycle. I'm certain that there must have been a Logo as well.

just bought a ccm flyte

30-40s tandem

38 ccm motorcycle

30s to early 40s delivery

1946 womens fleetwing with org baby carrier

1950 marshall wells and co mens bike

most all have org paint and pinstripping

i met a guy that has a  vintage bike graveyard and has over 50 bikes and was very cool to look and buy from him

thanks for looking and hope to get some more knowledge about the hobby and information on parts that might be needed.

Hi Guys.  My name is Gary and I live in Alberta.  I dabble in antiques and frequently come across vintage bicycles.  My most recent purchase is a Red Bird which I believe is a 1899 .  I will try to post pictures and any info would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello,

Thanks for letting me join your group.  I've been trying to determine the year and model name for this bicycle, does anyone recognize it?  There is a serial number, E136746, near the rear axle.  From what I could find online it appears that maybe this is a 1973 model?  My intention is to clean-up this bicycle and give it to a relative.  Can someone tell me what is the best way to make the badge look good again?  Thanks for your help.

Tom
