Looks like alloy rims and cranks. I had a ladies bike in the first show they did here in Winnipeg. A friend had 3 bikes in it. Filming companys rent bikes for shows like this one.

The bike in the background is interesting, but the bike in the forefront is definitely a newer bicycle, similar to the first bike at this link (with a few modifications).

This 1910 Royal Sunbeam has it http://oldbike.wordpress.com/1910-royal-sunbeam-for-gentlemen/
In the early 1900s the Brits legislated that all bicycles would have white panels painted or affixed to the rear fenders. I can't locate the source at this time, but the dimensions of the white panel was quite specific as to measurements.
Anyone know the answer? I'm curious.

Check out the fork in this close up, It too confirms it's not an older bicycle.
I see nothing vintage about that bike except possibly the seat, bars, grips. Looks like generic fixed gear otherwise.
The show is suposed to be 1887. That bike in the background has a ''white flash'' on the rear fender. I thought that came in in the 40s
When did it come in to use?

I have teens and 20s CCM bikes with these panels
