CCM lowrider

[Firewalker]

Today I was also able to do a few uprades to My 70s CCM. Man is she low.

Now that the weather is getting better ...It will be up for sale along with three others.

I have a special bike that I'm saving up for. My sons request

not sure if I will do much more being that she will be up on the block soon

i love the seat you made for this bike, the orange is killer!

Murray, that is a cool frame and the that seat is nice as always. Can you wrap the belair emblems to fit the frame better. Your neighbor could help you.

 

[Firewalker]

you know I remembered that ...

and when I call him on it he said it may look better the way I did it?

you know ....I'm not so sure now :?

thanks for the heads up man!

That bike came out real great Murray, what do you mean that the weather is better? Still -18 here! Guess that's why real estate ain't cheap on the west coast. :mrgreen:

Don't worry about it, the entire East coast of Canada falls on the floor laughing when you guys get a "snow storm". I guess that makes us even. :mrgreen:

are you the owner of Maple Ridge Cycle? It looks like that pic was taken beside it? I've seen that bike in the window as well as the three wheeled basket/picnic bike (never come buy when the shop is open)...

No I am not the owner. Troy is the owner and a good friend, he has helped me and Kev (aka) Clothes-pin "N" in all of our builds and supports the bike club that I run at the local Elm school.....

The story behind that trike is it was given to Troy many years ago when a guy came by the store and asked if he would like to have it? or he was going to toss it out :shock:

Troy later gave it to me but the deal was that I had to customize it! :mrgreen: I now get to keep it at the store for I have no room at my house. :roll:


The CCM is now there because Troy is helping me sell it

8) I just want to compliment you on the quality of the build. This bike is beautifully clean and understated. I especially admire the seat- how/where did you get it done? Regards.

 

[Firewalker]

did ya sell it?

bet ya did .. well looks great .. love the colors ....

 

[Firewalker]

you know what!

the blue schwinn that I did sold over night for a good price!

yet this one has yet to sell :? I have a feeling that I picked the wrong colour?

[RatFink]

I don't know...up here low riders are almost a smaller 'market segment' than crusers...I think the bike is awesome, color is fine.

But ya know if it was a stock CCM mustang, I would be much more interested :wink: but that's me, maybe I'm square.

whats up with the v8 on the bottle? is it melted onto the bottle?

The emblem was heated up on the bottle to get the emblem to curve so it would wrap around a head tube. Look here viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1191
