I bought this over the phone thinking it was a 1923 ladies bike and I could acquire some hard-to-find parts for my early men's CCMs. It turned out to be a 1927 girls CCM Cleveland so the fenders, rims, and saddle are unusable on anything else. It will join my growing list of bikes that need fixing. The rear fender has the holes for lacing, so I thought it was missing its chain guard.
I was just given this bicycle from the original owner, who grew up in Ontario. Thanks for the contact information, John!
He was told that it was a CCM "test" model and he told me it had sat in the store for a couple of years before he purchased it in 1967. The 1965 poster indicates that the 1965 green racer was new to their line-up that year. This bike is chrome and originally had no decals on it. The store owner put a red oval CCM head badge decal on it at the time of sale.
I came across these at a friend place. He has 2 pairs of these pedals. This pair has been re-nickled. What year are they from. These are the only ones I have seen. Would love to get a pair of them.
I was cruising the ilses in a antique mall when I came across this sign and had to buy it.
I plugged it in and it lite up.
Any idea what year it ws introduced ?
I picked this up the other day, and from what I can tell it is a '39 road racer. It's pretty rough, but looks mostly original and was all there except for the headbadge, seat post bolt and chain. I think the stem may have been changed at some point, and maybe the rims. They are marked 28" Canadian Size on them but are wearing 27 x 1 1/4 tires. I put a chain, seat post bolt and pumped up the tires for a couple pictures. I've been looking for something similar for myself to ride ever since my Dad gave me Bobby Bentley's old bike and think thi
Hello all! I'm looking for information on removing a triplex crank, never done it and I don't want to break it. Can anyone enlighten me on how this process goes down. I appreciate all and every piece of information.
This question came up in my other recent post about my Sunshine Waterloo with CCM fenders. I noticed that although they appeared the same, the front fender was constructed differently than the rear. Photos of both appear below. The other photo is from the 1918 catalogue. So my question is, in what years did CCM switch their fender designs? In what year, shortly after 1918, did CCM stop using the skinny fenders and switch to the drop-side fenders? And during what time periods were the two different cream colour CCM fenders (from this Sunshine) used? Thanks in advance.
I bought this Sunshine Waterloo on the weekend. I really like the frame design and colour scheme, but it appears to have been heavily restored, possibly with many CCM parts. I think it is supposed to have the same wide, round fenders and wide, painted rims that my unrestored pale blue SW Ladies has (thread Sunshine Questions). The fenders are certainly CCM, but how about the rims? The front hub has no stampings, and I don't recognize the rear hub.
Hi, I believe this bicycle used to belong to my great grandfather. It is a little beat up with a dented seat stay, bent handlebars, missing head badge and a bunch of small dents around the head tube. It seems to have some features in common with some pre-1921 Clevelands I have seen pictures of. The rear hub is a CCM with a 1926 Patent stamp, the front hub, or at least the axle, is a Phillips. The pedals are also marked Phillips. The crank arms are marked CCM. The serial number is 907025.
