Vintage 1969 CCM Galaxie Makeover

Alan Zweig's 1969 CCM Galaxie was given to Josh Heisie in the summer but needed a lot of work. Josh gave it back to me in exchange for another bike and the CCM has now been fixed.
The bearings have all been cleaned an re-packed as well as a paint job and new seat. I'll probably still change the handle bars and grips.
For a good tutorial on rebuilding these things check out Bike Overhaul.
Now with the low bars, chain and makeshift tool bag.
There's a company in Montreal that has some very cool vintage bike accessories for sale:
