I was wearing horseshoes when I picked this bike up. Does anyone recognize the model?
22-20" frame, enamel rims, maroon matching the frame, and white pinstriping all around. 28" wheels, 50T crank.
Everything but the saddle and handgrips looks original.
Hi,
I just received this bike from my brother in law who knows I'm into fixing up old bikes. There is no badge on the front and I can't find any name on the bike anywhere, other than ccm on the handle grips. I'm just curious if any one can tell me roughly the age of the bike, or other information.
I'll provide pictures below,
Thanks
I found this bike for sale in an antique store, Lavoy, Alberta. Well under $100. XXXXXC, not bad shape at all. It came with fenders and original seat. Both items undergoing repairs. The rims are unmarked Westwoods, SS. They take a 700C with only light shoehorning. The original tires were Dunlop Imperials 28 X 1 1/2". The frame is a 22-20".
Picked this up in my travels. Perhaps 1947.
sadly, the first four pages were removed. Would have been an interesting read.
Hello to all viewers. I am a senior, and from time to time acquire a bike, clean, fix up and resell.
I haven't purchased older bikes until recently. I was asked to sell a couple of original, one owner bikes for friends, and was suprised with the interest that ensued. As of late helped a contact in Halifax acquire an Eatons Glider here in Toronto. Just had it shipped.
To my specific item: I acquired a 77 ladies CCM elite. Not rare, but this one is very good, little or no rust and almost original.
is the glue used to install tubulars on to aluminium ok to use on wooden rims. also the rim now has no finish on it what should i use .the orginal finish was what i believe to be shellac. thanks william rudolph.
Hi everyone,
Don asked me to say "hi" to everyone he met in Brantford. He also wanted me to post a few pics from his collection. They include a cushion-frame bike (black), a 1957 Standard Cycle Products Sturmey-Archer SW 3-speed (blue), a 1952 Cyco Sonic (orange), and a 1951 3-speed club racer (baby blue). Enjoy!

There are many questions that come in by the way of the website. Usually i can respond fairly promptly, but this is the week of the Stewart Park Festival which I chair and things have been pretty hectic. So i thought I'd post the last few hoping someone might be able to help these folks out. Thanks.

QUESTION # 1
Smaller than 1/2 inch threading on pedals! Any idea what this is and where to find replacement pedals?

QUESTION # 2
Just trying to see if anyone knows what the year of my bike is from the serial number? F655131, any info? thanks so much.
As mentioned in a previous post, I was pretty excited to have recently acquired a 1930 Massey Harris Motorbike. One of my two favourite bikes and one that I've been after for a few years. It was sitting buried in a garage since the 70s. Overall everything looked to be in good shape other than a couple broken spokes, one punctured tire and the fact that it was completely covered in spray paint. Minimal rust on the handlebars. All other plated parts are really nice once the paint was removed.
