I heard a loud creak on my midnight commute home. It was coming from the frame of my beloved Claud Butler commuter, which always has creaked a little from origins unknown. I discovered a huge crack in the lower head lug. I'm still reeling. It is the same size as that Trek and in similar condition. It would be wonderful if you still had it and would send it to me in Medford Mass. I will pay bikeflights, I will wait, I am devastated but you could save me.
