Dear List,

My son and I are working on his "new" bike for the spring. Some of you may recall that Aaron is 11 years old and last year rode with me quite a bit on his mini Peugeot 24" wheeled racer. Well, Aaron is growing like a weed and a few months back a fellow list member was very generous with his time and helped me secure (and he packed and shipped for me too) a nice Motobecane Grand Record in about a 21" size. Aaron and I are just about to build her up after completely stripping her naked. There are few items that we need. Can you help?

Fair condition or better is all that is required:

Stronglight 93 left crankarm, 170; or better yet, a complete set in 165 would be fantastic. Stronglight 93 chainring, 122 bcd in 38t-40t - drilled would get him (and me) pretty jazzed as we have a drilled large ring already. Stronglight chainring bolts Stem, French dia, and short - like 55-65mm Handlebar to fit above stem and narrow (36 - 38mm) - I have an old AVA but am leery to use due to a couple of deep scratches at some high stress areas.

Thank you in advance,

Eric Elman
