I have a CCM 1972 Formula 1 ten speed, green racer, 27" wheels that I have had since I was 16. I'm now 60....wow...where has the time gone. Anyway looking for some tires for it. Any idea where I can get some. Time to start riding again. Have had 2 knee replacements and both hips....need the exercise ...lol...any help would be appreciated!
I just got this beauty from my good buddy Greg. I'm really grateful. I love this bike.
won't restore it. Will go through every bit of it. Clean, lube, wax, treat the insides of the tubes.
I have almost everything I need...except time.
Will update photos as this evolves.
Picked this up in July. Been riding it a lot this summer. The tires and seat are not original. Just bought myself a new black Brooks 67 seat. Will update pictures shortly.
I love this bike.
I have a 1965 Mustang that is identical to the one in advertisement. It is in rough shape. All the chrome is damaged. The frame needs to be repainted.
Im going to powder coat the frame and fix it up with new offshore parts as the costs to totally restore it wouldn't be worth it.
If anyone needs parts let me know.
Hi All,
First I want to warn the viewers that I have committed an horrible act by updating a 1950 Club Racer
Some parts I could not get, others, would not fit BUT once I get theproper hubs I will use my original rims and will have the wheels made up. At least the spokes and rims are superior on the new wheels which make a nicer ride.
Note, I did get the right nose for the front fender and have the black cable housing seat (for the cable housing which comes from the shifter).
Gentleman looking for info and value for bike he bought at a yard sale about 10 years ago. Any help?
Don asked me to post a picture of his 1961 CCM Imperial 3-speed. It has a "C' serial number and a Sturmey Archer 3-speed with a date code of 61-3. It appears to be a very early Imperial Mark II. The seat is not original.

I have an friend with a 1950's CCM Standard Motorbike frame (see pic). The serial number is an E-code which should be circa 1953. The curious thing is that the lower top tube is horizontal, while the upper top tube is the bent, camelback style. Between us, we have 1950, 1951, 1953, 1954 and 1958 catalogues and none show my friend's frame style. I have seen other 1950s CCM Motorbikes in both frame styles, though not many. Does anyone know the date range for my friend's frame style and why it doesn't match the catalogue illustrations?
Hi there. I am new to this site, one main reason for joining is that my 1942 Rambler has no serial number on it. It is simply stamped with '1942' on the seat tube where the serial number should be. Im of course assuming it is a '42 but has anyone ever seen this on an old CCM. As far as I have ever seen or heard there is always an actual serial number.
Thank you very much. Looking forward to hearing feedback.

Well I just received this stuff I found on Cragislist, from Indiana of all places!
One crappy CCm bike (with sort of a cool chain guard) but the Pixie motor apparantly runs. I also go a mostly complete second motor with tank, missing a few parts but also a few extra baubles.
Gonna clean it up, the tank has stuff in it that should be taken care of, mount it on a nice 26" CCM balloner i found at a car swap and fire it up!
