Fred Deeley bicycle




10 speed bike from Deelite Distributors, part of Fred Deeley Cycles Ltd. 
I was familiar with Trev Deeley, motorcycle dealership and museum but apparently Fred Deeley Cycle was the predecessor (and grandfather) of Trev Deeley and was Harley Davidsons second oldest dealer (starting in 1916). These bicycles appear to be rebadged imports.

They're not common!

I just purchased a banana seat bicycle in Alberta with a Fred Dealey badge on the leading edge. To me it was a great find as I was born in New Westminster and my father Harold Ellis used to deal with Dealey cycles when he was racing with Totem motorcycle club. So cool!!!
