Hi folks. I'm going to be posting some photos of a bike I discovered today. At first glance, i thought this bike was American, but the Hercules hub on the rear tire leaves me to believe that it may be Canadian. There are no holes in the headtube to suggest that it was badged (besides possibly a decal), and it has a really intersting stamping in crown of fork that reads Model No 65. The serial number reads 140387. The bike has original black paint, and I belive saddle, pedals, and grips are all original to the bike as well.
Could someone please confirm that my 1942 CCM Rambler uses 9/16 pedals. I took a wrench and that size fits but would like to know for sure since I’m looking for pedals. Thank you!
The front hub on my 42 Rambler has a small hole for oil but no plug in it. The rear hub has a huge plug and I has wondering if it is missing or didn’t come with a front one. Thanks!
Hello all,
Looking for new pedals for my 1942 CCM Rambler Motorbike. I have a set of Union pedals but would like at least a retro style without reflectors or a set of NOS Gibson or Phillips. Maybe you can help steer me in the right direction.
Massey Harris (CCM) Bicycle in the collection's of Country Heritage Park (Former Ontario Agricultrial Museum) Milton Ontario.I know it is a ladies model but what exact model is it and when would it have been made (Time Period)my guess is early 1900 - 1920's period?
Greetings. I am putting this old CCM back on the road. It is not an original painter but still very cool. My Questions:
Is there a jam nut or lock ring that goes on the smaller set of threads after the sprocket is spun on? Any tips on how tight for the sprocket?
Do the raised flange of the sprocket threads go inside or outside?
Hub numbers: I (eye)-86030 and CCM 37
Thank you in advance.
Anyone have a photo of a complete original 39 Columbia CCM motorbike or catalogue shot .
Recently aquired one and wondering about stem and whether or not it came with truss rods .
Can't seem to find a good picture of a nice complete one on line .
Thanks
Good day to all,
I have recently purchased a pre-1921 Cleveland frame and fork from a good man on this site.
What year would frame # 12317 equate to?
Also, the frame is painted marron-purple, is this an original color. The same color is found through the bike, including inside the bottom bracket shell (see pictures). What was that color called?
I recently found these two bikes in my Grandparents garage attic.
I was wondering if anyone could identify the year and model?
Just pulled from storage after 30 years. Owner looking for information.
