Vintage Canadian bicycles

Use this forum to discuss all things related to non-CCM Canadian bicycles, including Sunshine, Werlich etc.

Can anyone ID this bike?

Picked this up and can’t figure out what it is. Had a decal for headbadgeI think. Has an Eadie coaster brake hub, rod brakes, Dunlop Ranger tires that say “made in Canada”, a Wrights saddle.  

Mystery Bike

Anyone any idea what  this is?

Like it says in the title, currently trying to find anything on this bike, searching online leads to absolutely nowhere since ''Canadian'' and ''De luxe'' is attributed to every other off-brand/re-badged knock-off bicycles. So I posted it here in hope someone knows, have seen or have information on this bike.

Just to point out, it's sitting on a pair of 24' x 1.75 wheels (Araya) and I have a feeling the Cobra bars were added, replacing normal ape hangers.

COMING UP SOON!

Sturmey Archer Dynohub

I know it's neither CCM nor Canadian but hopefully someone will know:

I recently aquired a 1950's Robin Hood 3 speed with the Sturmey Archer Dynohub on the front wheel. The wiring is in pretty poor shape and is broken at one of the dynohub terminals, so only one wire to from the hub to the headlight is connected. When the wheel is turning, the headlight shines bright like it should, but the tail light does not work. I checked the bulb and its fine.
