I picked up a CCM Apache today. It has a shimano coaster brake 333 hub mated with a 24" made in Canada wheel set.
The there are two serial numbers. On the lower seatpost its E644658 but across the bottom bracket it has 704629021. The bb # looks to have been added after the paint. It also has a neighborhood watch sticker on it saying its been marked so police can identify it. I suspect the sticker and the bb# are related.
Any idea what year this bike would be and what years this model was manufactured?
I picked up this 1949 lady's bicycle from a friend of mine.
It has the blue headbadge. I have seen this badge before but not a lot.
My men's 1949 has the perforated badge as shown in the attached photo.
Does anyone know the history of the blue headbadge?

Hi,
What is the correct tire size for this rim? Is it 28 x 1 1/2" (ISO 635?). Are these Endric or Westwood rims and will most tires fit these rims equally well? That is, is there different tires for the different styles rim?
Thanks, Daryl
That's right folks. Gentleman is looking for a good home for his father's bike. It has original frame, fenders, handlebars, front wheel and carrier. Rear wheel, seat, pedals are new. Bike is located in Peterborough. If interested, send me a note - john.mckenty@sympatico.ca - and I'll give you the contact info.
Researched a thread here on a war era supercycle that might have had a Walton & Brown 285 spindle as stock equipment.
I recently got hold of this NOS 284 spindle. Anyone know if there's a way to date this with any specificity? It's very nicely made.

Here's some of my collection of NOS pedal parts.

The jars hold assorted cones, washers and nuts.

Here's some more Nickel. The screws and nuts are NOS, as is the pump clip. Sprocket is obviously used. The oil cap in the fourth photo is NOS. is it lead? The other two pieces are nos & nickel. I'm not sure what they are. Stamped Patent June 5, 1900.
