As it says in the title really...my current stem is about 140mm long...too long for me! I'm after something about 100mm, needs to fit 1" threaded road steerer, and it's not a problem if it has a few scratches as long as it's in reasonable condition. Anyone got one? PM me! Thanks in...

Help...I need some advice on converting to a singlespeed. I tried some other forums but people did not even know that 27" wheels and screw on freehubs ever even existed! Basically, I rebuilt this Claud Butler a few months ago but I'm sorry to say that I just have not ridden it...

OK so a bit cheeky asking on here, but has anyone else had issues with STW? I registered 2 weeks ago, profile is created but account not activated. I've emailed them but got nothing back. It's really annoying as there was stuff in the classified bit that I could not reply to! Any thoughts?

I've got two identical front wheels...radial spoked Mavic Crossride 6106s. Yellow sealed hubs, black butted spokes, QR axles but no skewers. Good condition, on road use only as far as I know. Hubs run perfectly, rims are true and not dented. Obviously rim brake compatible only, not discs...

I'm going to throw this away as it has a tiny crack in the top tube to head tube joint and it's basically worthless. Just in case case for some obscure reason anyone wants it and wants to weld it I thought I'd post it here first. Collection only...I'm in Rugby. Cheers

As my old 6 speed freewheel was knackered I've gone to a 7 speed, and although there is plenty clearance between the dropouts, it looks like I need to put a little more "dish" into the wheel, in effect keeping the hub where it is but moving the rim more to the driveside. I guess this is...

I'm rebuilding my old Claud Butler (see separate thread) and the new Charge bar tape arrives soon. The current bars have Shimano 105 Aero levers (just brakes, gears are on the downtube) but as they had the old foam "Grab On" grips the cables have been routed inside the bars, with the...

Hi...fairly new on here, and really enjoying the site. Recently got back into cycling, got a 2007 Trek Fuel EX7 MTB but I was hankering after a road bike (MTBs seem RUBBISH on road if you've ever ridden skinny tyres!) so I decided to dig my old 1980s Claud Butler Dalesman out of my mum's garage...

Hi New on here, and what a great site. I've rescued my old 1980s Claud Butler from my mum's garage and I've decided to give it a bit of a rebuild. At the moment it's got the really old non-index "gold arrow" Shimano 105 mechs and downtube shifters running on a 6 speed freewheel (not...

Hi...first post on what seems to be a great site! I've dug out my 1980s Claud Butler Dalesman which has not turned a wheel in over 10 years and it's having a bit of a makeover with a bit of a nod to the Charge Plug. At the moment it's got the really old Shimano 105 non index rear mech (the...
