Does anyone know anything about CCM bikes, and what happened to them? I bought a used CCM Supreme with 27" x 1 1/4 wheels, and Shimano Altus derailleurs. I have found it very hard to find any information about the Supreme, or CCM Bikes...

I am planning on taking it apart cleaning and remaking it to use it as a learner to figure out how everything works.

This is not a picture of mine, but is one I found on google which looks identical (except mine has no drop handlebars).


This is mine in its current state:


When I bought it the wheels were far from true, tubes barely inflated. And I can only shift between the two smallest rear gears. But its a work in progress.

Basically - does anything know anything about the bike? Do you have suggestions for replacement parts? What should I do with the rims? The rear one is quite rusted...

I don't plan on using it that heavily, it will hopefully become my commuter bike, but live very close to where i work.
