white tipped rear fenders

Who knows what year was the first year for white tipped rear fenders ?

if I understand it correctly, it became law that the rear fenders on bicycles were required 

to be painted white for safety.

I see quite a few bikes with the lower part of the rear fenders have a 6 or 8" section painted white.

Can anyone provide the facts on it ?
 

Thanks very much

1940's Prototype CCM bicycle

I recently aquirred this CCM prototype bicycle as well as two tool chests that belonged to Charles J Faith. Here's what I was told about it as well as things I've learned while looking it over and cleaning it.

I was told this bike was designed and built by Charles J Faith at CCM in Weston, Ontario. Charles worked at CCM in the 1940's as an engineer. Even though he was not a papered engineer he had this amazing ability to problem solve, build and create. All the employees admired him and looked up to him for advice and idea's.

LOOKING FOR TIRES

Hello all,

I realize that what I am looking for may not be common, but you don't know until you ask. I am looking for correct rubber for a 1950/51 CCM balloon Motorbike. The 1951 catalogue lists 26x2, and a wise friend stated i need 26x2.125.  I would love white walls, but would settle for black. Everything on bike is original except for the rubber. Any help or leads would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,
Steve

CCM Crescent Bike

I was just given an old CCM Crescent bike and although this is not my first vintage bike I do think it might be the oldest that I own. The serial number is N35741 which I believe in a 1929 but correct me if I am wrong.
