Greetings Folks,

My name is Joe. brand new to the site. Thought I'd say hello.

Have lurked for a little while. Some great historical information. Looking forward to learning more and hopefully contributing.

I'm an American living in Canada. CCM was exclusively a hockey company to us kids in 1970s Boston. As a teenager I saw a CCM Mustang out in Western Massachusetts and thought it was odd that a skate company would put their stamp on a bike. (Kind of like when baseball legend Ted Williams endorsed a bike and other sports gear for Sears.)

From Vancouver:. Hello everybody.

I joined today. I have a couple of CCM Mustangs. One with a BMX rear wheel and another with a Falcon 3 speed rear wheel.

I have a problem with the Falcon 3 speed. The return spring clip has popped out and I am hoping a member here may have a drawing of the Falcon shift mechanism. I'm retired and recycle bikes for myself and have done about 1/2 dozen bikes for a commuinty family support group which is always in need of 20" and 24" bikes for children.

Hello, I've been following the forum for a few weeks and decided to join. I have two CCMs, both apart and under repair.

A '66 Rambler 500 and a '67 Imperial. Unfortunately the paint on both had to go. Sometimes the paint condition on an old bike is "character", sometimes it's just plain "bad". I rode these kinds of bikes as a kid, usually with frames so large that they had to be mounted from a porch. I now ride mostly vintage road bikes. The CCMs should be running next spring. Looking forward to that.

Hi,

I am new to the forum and have a vintage CCM tandum bike that isnt being used much anymore (kids have grown). I am considering selling it so I thought this forum would be a good start. I will post pictures etc. in the next day or two.
