Bilenky, but he is in Pennsylvania and you are in California so that’s not 
ideal.

Bummer- looks like a really cool tandem. Love my HubbuHubbuH and seems like a 
lot of trouble to consider buying a whole tandem just because I always wanted 
the Toe Jam pump peg and Hand Job cantilever brake holder.

Did you ask Bernie if he thought he could repair it?

I'm very bummed to announce the recent demise of my tandem.  The stoker 
seat tube sheared through completely just above where it joins the bottom 
bracket.

Photos  
here, 
including the detail photo of the broken seat tube.

I bought this tandem brand new in 1994 when I worked for Wheelsmith in Palo 
Alto, and it was an awesome family tandem for quite a while. Both my kids 
rode on the back, and they're grown now.  I've got a Hubbuhubbuh on the 
way, so this has to go!

   - XTR drivetrain
   - Specialized cranks
   - 26" Mavic M261 rims, 36H, Hugi 8-speed cassette rear hub, Hugi front 
   hub with SS spokes. Pretty much bomb proof!
   - Custom stem by Bernie Mikkelsen (I have the original Ibis flat stem 
   also, painted to match that is included)
   - Nitto Noodle 48cm bars
   - Tektro cantilever brakes
   - Ibis custom stoker stem


A skilled builder might be able to replace the seat tube, but it'd be a bit 
of work and might not be worth the money to do so.

I'm posting to see if anybody is interested in purchasing this complete 
(minus both seats, the stoker seatpost, and the Sackville bag in the 
photos).  If not I'll likely part it out, keep some, sell some.

If you know of any builder who might take this on, please let me know.  I'd 
really love to see it back on the road again, even with a new owner.  
Thanks!
