From Marlon:
Hey, My wife and I have been refurbishing and upcycling old vintage bikes for a while now and we recently acquired a nice CCM Apache but the decals and paint are to far gone to save. we are going to repaint the bike but would like to get ahold of some new decals to finish off the bike. Any suggestions?
From Steve:
I recently purchased a cycle, serial number T22134,which I believe is a 1932 CCM. On further strip down, I have found another number on the forks, BSA13/16H, not sure what this means, Could anyone help explain this number?
A year ago I tried and failed to remove a pair of pedals from my 1947 Men's Roadster after having a frame bending run in with a lamp post. It wasn't until I was able to more easily remove pedals from a different bike that I discovered what I had been doing wrong.
Help Please.
I am working on restoring a 1972 CCM ladies bike for my wife.
I'm re assembling after a total teardown and paint job. This is my first bike teardown.
I can't for the life of me remember how to attach the front fender to the downtube. I think I might of lost a part when tearing down. I see a square hole on the bottom of the downtube of the front fork. Was there a plastic gromet or something to accept the screw I think I took out?
Any help would be great!

Hi,
Just wondering if CCM made any loop frame models like the one seen here. Serial # Y12328. Not much to go one. "Clipper" 26 x 1 1/2" F.12 tires/wheels. "Standard" Made in Germany saddle. Hub has a CCM labelled brake arm and stamped hub shell with "A38871".
Thanks, Daryl
Picked this up over the weekend at a swap in Abbotsford. Cool double bar, balloon tire bike. Nice Gibson pedals, cool horn, Cadet speedo and sweet 48/49 Victoria BC licence plate! One real nice Dunlop tyre.
I know the seat is wrong but still a nice Troxel with crash rail and I know the bars and grips are wrong but they go well with the bike I think.
I picked this old CCM double top tube roadster up a day or two ago, but I am unsure of its vintage and model. Any help identifying when it was made and what model it is would be much appreciated...
a threaded bottom bracket and cotter pin cranks?
My buddy on Vancouver Island says he has one and has not found anyone else with one.
I know there are some of you back east with a lot of Flytes and wonder if any of you have one?
I've seen the bike but did not note the crank set.

Hello all.

I have inherited my Father's bicycle, and I think it is old.
I have a couple of vin's I'd like to know the dates of manufacture.
Just tell me where I can find this info ... and I'm there.
Thanks ....

I have a ccm bicycle that I am restoring.
26x11/2" wheels
It has the brass ccm head badge, the lower forks are bent forward.
Crank has the ccm logo
Originally it was white with red decals.
Serial number is C56888
By the serial chart here it look as if it is a 1963 model,
what would the numbers mean ?
Will post a pic. as soon as I can get one.
regards,
TJ
