Hi. I am hoping the knowledgeable CCM members can help me with this interesting frame. I cannot find
any online to compare it to. Any idea what model it is? It is a B serial number , it has a Super Komet hub, and a
headtube sticker (not badge). 28 x 1 1/2 wheels and a 19" frame. The fork shape surprised me until i realized that a
previous owner had bent them, then turned them around so the bike would still function ! Must have had interesting
Hi, Can anyone tell me about this bike? Who made the Canadiana? I can't seem to find anything on line. Any quess as to the year? Thanks, Jack
Hi everyone !
I'm new on this forum and in the CCM world ! I'm glad I found this community, because I bought yesterday a CCM Light Delivery, found on kijiji.
Here's it is, in a rather bad picture... more to come later !
(Please forgive my langages mistakes. I'm a french guy living in Québec)
Owner sends the following details and photos:
-Corbin Duplex Model 8 rear hub
-wood handlebars
-chain ring details
-crank/bb details
-the only stampings we can find are on the alloy? plugs on the top of
the forks. Looks like J K and then CCM stacked
-rear rim is wood and front is clad
-block chain
Apparently, there is a glitch with the Buy Now button for the 2015 calendar. I apologize for that. Hopefully, it will be rectified shortly. Isn't technology wonderful?

Hello!
I am trying to keep my Concorde as OEM as possible. One of the items on my "Put It Back" list is the front derailleur. It came with a Simplex Prestige. I believe it was model AV 223.
Hi All!
I've been messin' with bicycles for something over 50 years and have never found trustworthy advice about chain & sproket lubrication. Aside from many product suggestions, whether to lube or run dry is always debated.
The members of this group seem to care about protecting & enjoying their bicycles far more than they care about the 'cool thing' to use or do.
I managed to get the crank arms off (thanks for the suggestions!) and I'm starting on the BB. Any tricks to this process? Is the drive side left hand/reverse thread like on most modern bikes? Thanks again.
Hi, I have been working on this problem for some time. I have tried penetrating oil, products called Kroil and Release all, and I am considering heat and other options. I have heard about soaking this in apple cider vinager and molasses and water to remove rust. So far I have managed to knock the wedge loose, but the stem is stuck.
