Headsets on this page fit most older French bicycles, including most from Peugeot, Mercier, Motobécane and others.

Stronglight A-9 (French) $49.95 buy button

One of the lightest, most durable headsets available. The A-9 headset uses needle bearings, which have a much larger contact area than the ball bearings used in most headsets, and never develop "indexed steering." They don't turn quite as freely as ball-bearing headsets.

Stack height: 40.2 mm

What we do

We are a small, service oriented bike shop.

Although we primarily serve the Western suburbs of Boston, we are also available to cyclists throughout the planet.

We can help with hard-to-find parts and accessories and good advice. This site contains a number of useful articles on bicycling and bicycles, plus links to other bicycle-related sites on the Internet.

We are very proud of our problem-solving ability. We can often create custom solutions to your bicycling problems, adapting your bicycle to your specific needs.

We make a bit of a specialty of updating high-quality older bikes with modern parts, for the rider who doesn't want to give up on an old friend, but wants more gears, better brakes, a more relaxed position, etc...

For advice and information, feel free to

E-Mail, telephone, or visit!

We are located on Route 16 (Washington Street) in West Newton Square, about a mile and a half East of Route 128/95.

If you are coming from the West, look for us just after Route 16 crosses the Mass Pike. We will be on your left, next to the European Health Spa.
