Hi,
anybody from the Mpls, St Paul area that could help me "measure" how my Serotta is set up?

James, from Serotta is trying to help me figure out if a used Serotta I'm considering buying would work for me (bike is 800 miles away).

We have original build specs on both bikes but he needs to know: length and angle of stem, how many cm of spacers under stem, seat post angle and type.
With that, he can help me figure out if the Serotta I'm considering would work for me.

I'm thinking it would only take a couple minutes for someone that knows what they are doing.
I work in downtown Mpls and live in St Paul.

If anyone can help out, thanks.

Bob,

My shop isn't too far from downtown. Give me a call and I can measure those things. Friday would work well for me. 612.788.6812

Curt (cpg) did the quick measurements on my current Serotta and they are in the hands of James at Serotta.
I really appreciate the help Curt.
And James too, that he's take the time to help by figuring out if a used Serotta would work for me. Service like that is why Serotta is worth the $$.
