Recognize these ?
I found these bikes for sale - the seller has no further info, so I hope BF can help.
Is there anything "classic" in this lot ? Does anyone recognize or have info on any of these?
Thanks
Gerald
Triumph on the chain guard. Possibly a 3 speed?
CCM looks like on the chain ring. Interesting seat adjustable mount. 1 speed ?
I can't make out anything from this pic for names. Triple front ? plastic pedals.
Nice work on mounting the rack.

I've been making good use of the search function. Triumph seems to be considered a run of the mill cheaper version of some of the Raleigh bikes. Many Many produced, so not really prized by anyone.
Anyone have a comment on the CCM ?

The fork on the ladies' bike looks pushed back. The Triumph looks nice. Keep in mind it has a 21" frame, so if you are 6' in height it will be too small. Check the manufacture date on the Triumph's rear Sturmey-Archer hub (71?). The seat has been changed...would look nice with a Brooks leather saddle. The mountain bike looks like a nice, older, inexpensive "beater" bike for "around town" use. Hope the asking prices are reasonable.

Fork on ladies' frame is tweaked, but if you have the Park straightening tools, it is worth the $25. Same goes for the Triumph, as it seems to be exceptionally nice.

Only problem being, I really have no use for the Triumph. I'd make the ladies bike serviceable for my Mom, because she hates her modern bike with all the gears, and newfangled stuff, and it has a cross bar as well.
I guess the Triumph would be kind of fun for grocery runs, or family MUP rides.

The other two bikes must be hanging on either side of the Triumph.
One to the left looks like maybe a 10 speed (drop bars - safety levers)
The one to the right, you can just see the whitewall tire. (appears to have MTB forks and bars)
Guess I'll find out tomorrow.

On the left, cheap ten speed, possibly Ross or Columbia. On the right, current-era ladies' Huffy beach cruiser - worthless.
