It's that time of year again. Last year was my first, and I have been counting down the days since. Overall a great show and swap meet. http://www.canadianvintagebicycleshow.com/

So this officially was my first build right from scratch. I couldn't be happier with the way she turned out. Her original form: What she has become. Parts List: 1950 CCM twin bar frame 1936 Sturmey Archer front brake hub, matching 3 speed rear hub with imported Michelin...

Didn't see this posted yet, but I personally can't wait! Come out to the 11th annual Canadian Vintage Bicycle Show coming up on Sunday June 24th from 7am - 6pm at a beautiful farm at 95 Tutela Heights Rd, Brantford Ont. (across from the Bell Homestead Historic site). This event has been growing...

On my '36 I have date code stamped '50 Sturmey Archer front and rear drum 3 speed wheels. I finally got the bike all cleaned up and took it for it's first real ride last night. I didn't as much tap the rear wheel with my foot when taking off from a light and it threw the entire rear wheel out of...

This is my first build off, and my first attempt at fully customizing a bike. It's a 1940 CCM, going for the popular board track style but who knows what it really will be in the end. Going to be fun...

Found this bike on the local for sale ads, went out today to pick it up. The guy didn't know much about it other than he had, had it for quiet sometime. He never touched much other than putting new tires and a new shift cable on it. The bike is red in colour,with 28" Sturmey-Archer wheels, 3...

I recently acquired the new style monark front end for my project. The specifications state that it will only fit with a 26" wheel. The bike I am working on came with 28" wheels, but I have a line on front and rear old style 28" Sturmey-Archer 3 speed front and rear internal hubs wheels. I...

I have a 1940 CCM, trying to get the steering neck out. I have given the loose bolt a really good whack, I can hear the nut moving around freely in the stem when I move the bars. But absolutely no luck on it moving an inch. I could be mistaken, but it really looks like it's seized to the...

I have seen frame after frame and bike after bike on the local ad's and on this site, this one finally caught my eye. I came across it last night, and picked it up earlier today. I have always wanted to completely customize a bike, and with the price of gas costing me $100 Canadian a week to...

Came across this ad, for Harley's new promotion about growing out of the pedal bikes...what if we still ride these pedal bikes and yet to have our motorcycle license? Is it even better that I work at a Harley shop. All we talk about is our muscle bikes and go on cruises together...

I recently upgraded my bike to a Sturmey Archer 5 speed internal hub wheel set with drum brakes. I didn't install the wheels, as I didn't trust myself with the final adjustments. I was wondering if there is a way to change the gearing ratio, or adjust the gearing? Maybe it will just take...

http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell ... Z354193093 Within that ad, the guy is looking for $3500 for that penny farthing. I was about to make an offer of $300. I am just trying to wrap my head around $3500, there is no way that bike is actually worth that much. Is there?

With it being boxing day, and above 5degrees (45degrees) out it was a beautiful day for a ride. It was probably the last ride of the year, although maybe not the season with how the weather is looking. My Pea Picker Sisters Rat Rod Custom Painted bubble gum pink 1963-64 CCM Cheetah Brother...

So I have been on the hunt for over a month now for a Sturmey-Archer 5 speed click stick shifter. The shifter to work with the Schwinn 5 speed grey ghost wheels. All the local bike stores told me they were unavailable from their distributors. Emailed sunrace usa they told me to go away. Not...
