Corner of Botteslow Street & Leek Road and there's a place on the industrial complex off Dewsbuty Road where you can go see and ride.

I don't know these folk so can't say how they are.

Was looking at Raleigh strada e or converting an old Raleigh 3 speed, I have to try and measure the bottom bracket properly. I like the lack of no gears to index, even thought of taking a punt on tannus tyres for maintenance free riding.

Croxden cheers had a look in the shop at bottom of Hanley and cdc, still yet to actually try anything hoping some of the hills round here will flatten out for the commute
