Without your knowing it, we could use cheaper tubing for the frames instead of our high-grade, English Seamless Tubing, reinforced at the joints. We could use a cheaper hanger instead of the three-piece Triplex that makes the C,C.M. turn so smooth- ly and easily. We could use cheaper bearings in- stead of our Flint-hard Steel bearings that a file cannot cut. We needn't clean our frames so thoroughly, nor treat them with a coat of anti-rust before enameling. We needn't put on so many coats of our rich, lustrous special C.C.M. enamel, nor leave the frames in the enameling ovens so long We needn't take so much care in clean- ing our handle ba crank hanger, hubs and other parts ons they're nickeled. We take off every speck of dirt and grease, 80 as to have a thoroughly clean surface. Next we coat the parts with copper to prevent rust. Then, the C.C.M. parts are left in the nickel baths for about two hours, instead of the twenty-minute or so dip given cheaply nickeled parts. Wouldn't you rather pay a little extra for C.C.M. rust- f nickeling, than to get a bicycle that, before long, shows little marks of red rust peeping through the nickeling? We could save expense not making all of, the 1,761 parts of C.C.M. Bicycles with such care and precision. C'C'M's are made so accurately, you could take two bicycles to pieces.
