I figure its time to share some of my collection. I'm in Nova Scotia, have been collecting bikes for about 2 1/2 years. I have makes from 1890s to the 1970s. I will add more pix as time goes by. REQUIREMENTS . I need tires for my Road Racer 28 X 1 1/4" and a triplex crankset (small dia)

New to this board, but I am in the process of restoring one of Torchy Peden's track bikes circa 1928/30. To make this bike 100% correct, I would need to find a rear hub and a handle bar stem from that vintage or close.
The original hub used in that time was stamped "C.C.M. FLYER" but it will be unlikely that I will find one. If anybody knows were I could locate (close to that vintage) a rear ONE PIECE steel track hub I would love to hear about it. I have added a picture from the front hub so you have a idea of the profile.
This show was started in 2001 by Jamie McGregor (a member of our site) when he decided to display some of his bicycles for friends at his farm in Brantford. Now ten years later it's grown into the Canadian Vintage Bicycle Show. Well done, Jamie!!!
Hi, I am writing from Australia. I have recently aquired a CCM made Brantford Red Bird. CCM was a popular brand here at least until the 20's until Australian produced bicycles (based on English standards) gained wide popularity.
I have dated the bike from local experts to beween 1900 - 1910 however I am keen to hear the opinions from those in it's country of origin.
These images were taken before I dismantled the bike and commenced removing rust etc.
This RANGER badged bike was purchased new at HBC in Winnipeg in the late 30s, in my mind its a CCM built bike but not 100% sure, it looks identical to CCM bikes of the same vintage though, except that the serial number is under the crank. The badge resembles a Meade Ranger badge, but it surely can't be that. Can anyone confirm what exactly I have here?
Bought this bicycle at an auction a couple of months ago. Haven't had a chance to clean it up yet. The head badge says it's a Cleveland 458. It's all original with wooden rims and wooden handle grips and came with the original bell, tool pouch and a carbide light. The leather seat is marked C.C.& M. Co. Ltd. as well as Comfort No. 9 + the wheel with wings symbol. The fenders are half-round and the rear hub is marked Sturmey Archer Coaster. The serial number is 55054, but I've not found any date.
