What is this?
#1
It's a vintage 10 speed from, I believe, the 1970s. All I can gather from the stickers are that it's manufactured by CCM, and some references to 'Empire' and 'Le Tour'.

Any help identifying the bike is greatly appreciated!

hi, Thom. nice vintage! back in the days, Empire bikes were imported from Japan and marketed through other brands. I have seen Empire Professional in real life and it resembles your red machine.

can you take close-up images of components? derailleurs, shifters.
