Use this forum to discuss all things related to vintage CCM bicycles including Rambler, Flyte, Mustang etc.
Hi,
Can anyone point me in the direction of a forum thread or site on Canadian sizing for bicycle wheels? I have a bicycle (early '70's) that seems to have a radial warp in the front wheel...although the 26" tire my be seated too tightly if the rim if the sizing is off. The rim is relatively radially true except for a small bump near the rim weld which I can't resolve. THinking it may be more the fitting of the tire...
Thanks and take care,
Daryl
Couple of guys from the Vancouver vintage bike scene have moved to Victoria and are trying to get a club going there for some vintage rides.
These guys are fun people so this should work out well.
We would be interested in finding Mark Elford who has some Massey- Harris bikes, and see if he wants to get some riding done.Any contact information would be helpful.
Cheers,
Lawrence
This woman sent me a bad picture of a bike and the headbadge said ''Gary'' then Saskatoon, Edmonton, Calgary on it.
The bike looks 1920s What the heck is it?
The picture won't post.
Anyone know when they started making the encore? Or have any idea when serial number A775839 could be from?
The 1964 CCM one-speed is back in motion: better, stronger, faster.
Thanks to participants of this site for helping me date the bike, and for comments and advice on the components.
Thanks to Wayne for the decals, and John for supporting the blog.
The bike is returning to its owner in Kingston.

I just found these 1942 through 1945 Chatham Ontario bicycle plates at a car show in a car 
vendors licence plate box. Thought they would be nice to dress up my 1930 Rambler and 1945 CCM. The same fellow said he had a 1943 Windsor. Ontario plate and would let me know when he finds it.
Took these pics today of the 1930 Rambler that I picked up last summer It is as I found it, just with a good clean up. I replaced the seat with one identical to the Brooks that was on it. Has anyone seen this head badge before.
I had posted this previously and had not provided a good picture. The serial number shows this as a 1959. Sadly someone has removed the head badge, so I am trying to find out the correct headbadge for it. also need one tire 28 x11/2 can anyone help
Thanks Tom
