Hi. I am fairly new to this forum. I recently purchased a 1924 girls crescent. The rims do not match. The front has a wood rim with dunlop fort tire. It is in great shape and is holding air. The rear rim is metal, the hub is a new hercules pat pending (with a brake arm) and the tire is called a challenge made in canada. The rear is leaking air from the valve stem. I would appreciate any advise i can get about the bike. I would like matching front and back / tires and rims ; however, this might be very difficult given how old the bike is.
I was told that this J.C. Higgins branded bike was made by CCM. I'm trying to find more info on it. When it was made. Etc.
Hi,
I have found this old SCP bicycle and I would want to know if someone could help me to wonder how old is this bike ?
Serial number is: G6842
Thanks !

I picked up CCM Massey men's roadster ( single straight top tube) with a C code frame number yesterday. It has a plain fork crown not the three bars I have seen in photos of other Massey bikes.... Did some models come with plain forks? Bike is a one family owner bike and was bought new by the grandfather of the lady I got it from.
seat is too modern (1950's) handle bar stem is a sliding adjustable one so that's wrong and it has been repainted at some time in its 97 years. It has a Eade Coaster rear brake....
What type of pedals do I have, it's on a 1938 motorbike
Anyone have a video or pics on rebuilding this seat.Dont get why the top pan has the bolts all the way through.
I know it's a 1938 sort of screwed up the badge but what is was it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated there are so many gold colors and all look similar to me. Cheers Rob

Interesting little runabout on kijiji. I can't find any info about.
Just thought I'd share here, cuz you guys are cool.
I am about to restore a nice condition 65 Mark IV and need a new set of tires . The current ones are white wall 26 x 1 3/8 and will be difficult to source. Until I find them, as a temp solution , i have 2 nice clean road tires that are 26 x 1.5 .
Would you anticipate any issues installing a slightly wider tire ?
thx
