Vintage CCM Bicycles

Hi there,

I recently picked up a vintage bicycle. I have been a bike guy since I was a kid and worked as a bicycle mechanic for years and now as a schoolteacher have taught thousands of students bicycle mechanics over 20 years. I am by no means a bicycle "collector" OR vintage bike expert. I have however seen many different bicycles over 30 years of working on them. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE vintage bicycles, but simply don't have the room to keep them. I do however collect Bicycle license plates from all over Canada. I have hundreds  

Hi I'm new to this forum. 

I have just inherited my grandfather's 1902 ccm bike. It has been sitting in a garage since 1963. It is rusted. It appears to have all its parts. I'm unsure if I should attempt to clean it or leave it as is. Unsure if attempt to remove the rust would harm it, decrease its valve. Or if it has any valve do to its rust. I was interest if anyone in this forum had any insight.

Thank you

Kelly 

Hi, 

Just wondering what the size of the lock nut is holding the chain wheel on the drive side of the crank. I think it's 1 3/8" but wanted to be sure. The wrench needs to be offset too I believe. Was there a tool made for this by CCM. If so does anyone have an extra they would like to sell?

Thank you, Daryl

Hi,

Does anyone have any info in terms of year/model on the tricycle picture ?

A picture of the original would be great also.

The one I have was my late father's and I would like to get it restored.

Any info about restoration or parts would also be great.

I am looking to source new decals for a 1977 Targa 10. I would like to have these in my possession before going ahead with a repaint. Any leads to obtain the decals?
