CCM Galaxie year thoughts and questions

Good day! I purchase this bike because of the shifter to be honest. But was pleasantly surprised at the condition so I will probably keep it intact. I've seen a few around online and am just curious if there's any literature on this model and what year it actually came out in! The hub says '66, the frame says '71 or '63 ? The pedals say late 60's to me.  The shifter as well. 26" wheels. Thoughts?! Thanks! Doug

Head Badge Insert Years?

Up until 1949 most CCM bikes came with badges that had cutouts (except war year decals). In early years the metal cards inserted behind the badges had model numbers stamped on them. Later cards just had colour, eg. red.
I have 2 questions:
- Which years had these coloured cards (or when did this stop)?
- Did all bikes in a given year have colour card inserts or were they reserved for certain models or grades of bikes?

Bent Fork?

Good Sunday Morning!

I have this (whatI think is a 1950's roadster) and the fork looks bent. Can anyone tell from the picture if this might be the case? I know some vintage bike forks seem to "sweep" back before the forward rake bend.

Thank you,

Daryl

Why are my pictures always uploaded side-ways...

Hi There,

Anyone have a suggestion for removing the press cups on a CCM Flyte? I know Park Tools make a removal tool for new genration press cups but thinking the braintrust here may have better ideas. Thanks in advance.

Positron confusion and brake lever photo

I have a 1977 CCM Targa 10.  I am trying to determine which positron deraillieur has and if I can purchase new cables for the shifter (dual cable, continuous piece and housing.  Any help would be appreciated.  Also looking for an photo of the internal workings of the brake levers with the cable in place so I can replace brake cables.

CCM Phantom Road Bike

Hello, all.  Recently, I acquired a rough condition CCM Phantom 10 speed road bike.  I wish to put it back into decent ridable condition, keeping original spec's for this model as closely as possible.  Currently, the bike wears Weinemann calipers and levers with medium range Sun-Tour mech.  Rims are Italian-made alloy.

CCM Seville Road Bike

Picked up this CCM Seville ... in very nice condition but will show a lot better with complete clean up and new bearings, cables etc. Has complete Shimano 600 series groupset. Also needs the original seat ... pretty sure it came with a Vetta. Any interest in this bike let me know before I start the restoration.

Help ID this bike

Hello!
I bought this 1926 bike last week.
I was thinking its a Massey Harris but the holes for the badge doesn't look at the right place for Massey.
The holes on the side almost to the back.
What i found is maybe CCM or redbird.
I only find those two that have a bage with far back side badge.
The space between the top tubing is also larger than other bikes i found except for Massey.
If you have any idea to help me ID it, i would be happy.
Thanks
