Once I get that cap off I can see if tightening the bolt fixes the problem or if the BB spindle is ruined--The PO was riding it this way. Other than that it seems like it's in great shape so I'm just planning on riding it for a while and seeing how much I like it. Beyond that I'm not sure.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^
Brand recognition (above) is the only reason that Stowe is still listed. He is or was in Rochester NY and there's enough builders in Washington State and around there already.
Made in Kokomo and for sale in Kokomo? Bet it's already gone.
Besides, probably a great bike to ride on a nice but not sure I'd want to ride it in freezing rain with the Beach Boys Kokomo song running endlessly in my head.....
