I meant Bethesda. I have finished gussying up my friend's Peugeot Mixte (a big blue one-- 58 cm!!)-- just the basics: honjo fenders (recycled from my old bicycle), new white tires, cables, housings, kool stop mafac brake pads, suntour RD, and put huret stem shifters instead of the downtube ones. Sorry I don't have pictures, and I can't take any now because it is all in a box to be put on greyhound to go out to my friend.

Anyhow, she may need some minor help putting it back together, and for future service upgrades, and I have no idea about where to send her. She lives and works near Bethesda, MD. So if anyone could please suggest a C&V good/friendly shop to help her out, that would be very much appreciated!

you could give a call to Bike Doctor up in Frederick. I work there on weekends and do plenty of honjos, james- the ass't mgr is a big fan of mafacs, and the only remote bias i can see is he might see if he can convince you to go barcons before stem shifters . but all told-- we're all fans of cool old bikes!
