send your email to him then if you want pics...he says this in the ad. I suffered the same responses in an ad of mine when I couldn't upload, which is usually due to the file size being too large.

Re: My Shorter - ready for summer As I said its just a general rule, a starting point if you like, like everything else for positioning. It isn't a criticism. Google Alf Engers, but you may know the history of King Alf anyway.

Re: My Shorter - ready for summer Lovely bike, these were around late seventies early 80s. Alf Engers time trialled on one , so he was a good advertisement for Shorter. As a general rule the end of the bars should be 90 degrees to the head tube, but its down to preference really.

Thanks Let me know if you find it.

Yes I have a pair somewhere, but I am working on the Isle of Wight at the moment, and home is Manchester. I should be returning in the next few weeks, and I will have a look. They are nice Shimano ones from memory..maybe 105 or Ultegra, just hope all the bits are still there. I will be in touch...

Can anyone help. I need a 1" to 1 1/8 shim for fork column, so as to fit a Deda Ahead stem. The stem I have is new from Ribble cycles. It cost me £36 and according to Dedas own instructions should have a shim provided in the package for this purpose. Ribble cycles are not interested after sale...
