Use this forum to discuss all things related to vintage CCM bicycles including Rambler, Flyte, Mustang etc.
Just picked this up today. Fella was about 20 minutes from my house!
I'll get more pictures soon.

Hi All!
I hope you all don't mind that i posted this in the Vintage CCM Bicycles Section, since thta seemed like the most appropriate forum section for tools. I also hope you don't mind that I posted it at all, but I wanted to place it here in case anyone would find a cheap-to-build truing stand helpful. I was getting kind of frustrated trying to straighten a badly wapred wheel on the bicycle, so I donated a couple of hours to building this tool. (Plus about 10 pencil and paper hours trying to figure out what I wanted....)
Picked up a bike today with that serial number and it doesn't show in the lists.
This bike was on Kijiji with over 800 views but was not selling. The daughter of the owner said people were either no-shows or made offers of around $30. I thought I would help the woman out of her misery and pick up the bike. It's crazy that nobody bought it because it's in beautiful original condition and all I had to do to make it rideable was put air in the tires. It will look even better once I've cleaned up the rims and hubs. It had a 10-speed seat on it so I put on one that is at least the correct shape if not the correct colour.
Hi,
Has anyone drilled a CCM front form to install a calliper brake? I want to make a path racer. Originally I was thinking three speed but want two brakes. It will be single speed coaster with a front brake if possible. Thoughts?
Thanks, Daryl
Hi everyone,
Don says hi to all his friends on this site and asked me to post these pics for him. One bike is a CCM Flyer 51, while the other is a 1951 Club Racer with a flip-flop hub.
And that's Don in his living room that doubles as a bike shop (or is that a bike shop that doubles as a living room?!!).
Cheers!
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a good pic of the type of Mesinger bike saddle used on CCM Flyte bikes by 1938 onwards. The catalogue image shows a really longer spring saddle than examples that I have seen. Thanks! David
I recently acquired this CCM, with a serial number CT6990. The number would indicate 1970 or 1971. It looks like it has been repainted, the original color may have been white?
1970 Gran Turismo, Grnad Prix, Formula 1?
Any help would be appreciated
Regards
Marc
