Hello All!
I am new to this group and have, if you all don't mind, a few questions about my Concorde that you all will surely know more aobut than I do. My original files about the bike were lost to theft many years ago. I'm trying to re-construct before I forget too many details. (Every time I learn something new, something old gets pushed out. I hope whatever pushed out the CCM details was really important!)
The first concerns the year of build and model year. It should help me remember when I bought the bicycle.
I found this nice and little used 1955 (best guess based on rear wheel hub) CCM Rambler the other day. Sadly, I know nothing about the bicycle and any information that can be shared here would be appreciated.
I plan to take pictures, clean the bike up, take more pictures then pass it on to someone else. Look for a feature article on my website, MY "TEN SPEEDS", in day, or weeks, or months to come.
I have posted some pictures on another forum site. If you send me a personal email, I will link you to the pictures.
Here is one I ride at the cottage, Its a 1937 tall frame CCM Roadster, 1970s chrome rear fenders & chainguard, V160 rims, Triplex crankset, note the professional electrical taping on the lobdell saddle. Jamie will appreciate this one
Hello
My Name is Paul and i am located in Australia, i did live in Canada for a period and have real fondness for all things Canadian.
I recently came across and subsequently purchased a vintage bicycle that i plan to restore. I am new to this process and was hoping i could get some advice from other passionate people.
Firstly though i need to confirm that the bicycle i bought is actually a CCM bike, as it is missing the front badge and i want to be sure before i start pulling it apart and working on it.

Hello all, I need help with a problem I have encountered. I'm putting back together a delivery bike, the sprocket is loose on the crank arm, the little stub that sticks out seems to be too big???. It looks to be for a thicker sprocket, which leads me to believe maybe it's not correct for this bike. THE serial number says it's a 1949, the sprocket has a dish too it. It looks nothing like My other bikes of the same era.
I recently got both these bikes. Wondering if anyone has leads on where to get a few parts and aswell as info on them
The redbird is a nice riding bike. Theres something thats supposed to be on the seat tube. what is that? I seen it in catalog, Also what redbird model is this? they all kinda look the same. lol.
The mustang has a odd 18' rear rim that apparently takes a 20x2x1 3/4 tire. anyone know where to get such a tire? and a chainguard for it.
I was looking for an Imperial or a Rambler for myself and came across a fellow in Edmonton that had a couple of vintage bikes for sale this past weekend. I'm a long haul truck driver and constantly check the areas I'm traveling through. Keeps me motivated:) Unfortunately the seller was of small stature and there's no way the bike will fit me. (6'1")
It's a sweet little bike and my wife it's actually interested in it.
