CCM Atlantic?

Hi, I recently obtained a 1945 CCM bike, serial number 5N2991.  It has 28x1 1/2 tires, painted rims and a non CCM crank set.  The rear hub is CCM 1937 and the front is Falcon.  The metal head badge is Atlantic Made In Canada. I don't see any information on this site regarding an Atlantic CCM model.  What have I got? Pics attached.

Reflector and visibility strip

I'm building a '32 Twin-bar motorbike (T prefix) and now that I'm ready to assemble I noticed there's no hole for a rear reflector. When did the reflector become mandatory, and also when was the white visibility strip added?

Thanks!

Anybody ever see one of these that has any intell? I think the double bar frame has a funky look! I'm guessing early 80's

Spoke tension for V170 wheels 27 x 1 1/4

I am trying to find out what the Apple tension should be for a 36 spoke steel wheel (V170 made in Canada 27x1 1/4). Spokes are 2.0mm steel. Tensions are sitting at 17 (park tool gauge) or 53 Kgf.  Wondering what they should be?  Would love to know front and back. Wheels are from a 1977 Targa 10 speed.
