You got it ! I don't know all of the details, but to the best of my knowledge that's the only Stone's that could be connected to Club Endspurt. Those guys were in the packs when I raced in northern CA from '73 thru '78. I could be wrong because I don't know every shop in every little town in no. CA, but in those days places like Stone's in Alameda, Cupertino Bike Shop, Talbot's in San Mateo, etc., were the places where racers in the smaller towns had to go to get the good equipment that the small local shops couldn't keep up with.

Cheers, "Bicycle Mark" Perkins
