Does anyone know of any good web sites to do research on older bikes? Been fixing bikes for a few years but just recently got into vintage bikes. I want to find out all i can right down to frame makers.

This is just too broad to answer -- there's no end to the potential for adding more and more links to more and more sites. That's not what the Stack Exchange format is about. We want to be the answer, not a place people go to find links to the answer.– David RicherbyCommented Feb 23, 2018 at 19:26

google.com is a good starting point. Without more details in the question, the answer ends up being just as vague.– Criggie ♦Commented Feb 23, 2018 at 20:09

There are several forums that cater to vintage bikes, one of the best in my humble opinion is the Cabe - The Classic and Antique Bicycle Exchange
There is an exponential amount of knowledge on there and the people really know their stuff.
Another is Classic Vintage Cycles
Lastly bikeforums.com has vintage section as well
These are the 3 i am most familiar with, however I'm sure there are many more. There are a couple dedicated websites as well but most are bicycle specific such as vintage BMX, or only Muscle bikes, or Schwinn's.
As much as i hate to say it google with be your best friend for this but the CABE is a good forum to start on, it will likely lead you to other resources as well. Hope this helps.
