Hello from Buffalo
Hello all, I just came upon a nice bike and my searches brought me here to try to learn more about my Stowe. Unfortunately the one I picked up is too small at 54cm. I would love to swap or find a replacement frame. Any help is appreciated

Hello
Hello, yes I am on the taller side at just under 6'-2". I do tend to come across frames that are a bit too small in general. Sometimes I have gotten lucky. I think finding this Stowe bike in the condition I did was the big part. Now just hoping to figure out how to breathe life into great components.

Check with the bike co-op. 98 Colvin Ave, if you don't know address. Last year there was a 25 inch Stowe on the shelf. They don't do trades but prices are fair. You could also try Rochester members as Stowe worked there.

Thanks for the tip, I never would have thought to check there. I assumed a quality bike or frame would have gotten scooped up out if there given the amount of people there. I haven't been in a few years so I will see if it's there.
