Use this forum to discuss all things related to vintage CCM bicycles including Rambler, Flyte, Mustang etc.
A fellow picked up this early Ivanhoe today- wooden grips, wooden rims. Looking for any pertinent info., age etc.
CCM Rambler with H in second position of serial number. Must be 1940's.
I bought this early 80's CCM bmx this summer. I want to restore it but finding any info is turning out tougher then I thought. Anyone else have one like it. Looking for colors and decals. Thanks.
Hello,
I have a question that maybe someone can answer.
What material did CCM use for their Flyer BB axles?
The material, specification and process would be nice to know.
i.e.
Material type
Heat treated to hardness (Brinel or Rockwell number)
Hi, I'm thinking about fixing up a CCM 3 speed that my Dad bought new in North Battleford Sask 1941 as a kid. The serial no. appears to be 9V6732 but some of the numbers are stamped upside down so it could be 9A67432 making it a 1937 model. I've got the 1941 tin licence plate for it as well which is pretty cool.. Unfortunately the rims are too far gone with rust so they will have to be replaced. From what I have gleaned from the web, the rims are the 26x1 1/2 westwood type.
First off, please excuse my ignorance on the subject. I love all forms of cycling and the history of it but am new to world of vintage bicycles and eager to learn.
I've been looking online but can't find any photos similar to my Massey and am hoping someone with more knowledge of them can share some info or point me in the right direction. I've seen a couple photos of delivery bikes that look very similar other than heavy duty basket that they have.
- I believe it is a 1942 model. Serial number is 1h9221
- not a wraparound headbadge
Recently I was looking at some of my bikes, which either languish in glory displayed at home /cottage or are either ignored or nelected in one of the outbuildings, all of which get limited exposure to the general public. Some get accompany me to Car shows on occasion or are loaned for museum displays.
I am new to Vintage CCM,
I have an old 28" Bike which i think is a pre-war model, the original colour was a dark blue, it's a 20" frame, flat fender braces, Diamond headbadge. It has been modified over the years, with a 50's seat, dino-hub, 3spd brake hub.
The serial # is 6A574 . Any idea what year this would be ?
Having trouble loading other pictures... I will try again later...
Hi,
I am doing a few restorations including new paint. I am looking for information on finding and replacing headge badge rivets. I am looking for information on size, types (material), installation and a Canadian supplier.
Thanks,
Daryl
I'm restoring my 1923 CCM Perfect bicycle. I have the frame stripped down except...I can't get the front forks off the bike. I am unable to get the steering tube detached from the fork tube.
I was able to successfullly remove the big bolt that goes down the top of the steering tube, but I cannot loosen the steering tube from the fork tube.
