My TREK
I got this in May of 2010 for a song on craigslist, It's a 12 speed with 27 x 1 1/4 inch wheels. I replaced the bars with the drops and in's got now, when the wheels could no longer ride I rebuilt the rear one with the bike's original hub and sprocket in a period correct area rim witch matches the front. the bike came with Schwalbe tires, and I also kept the Suntour edge rear derailleur and replace the front Suntour derailleur. I put in a new sealed shimano bottom bracket. and I found Tectro long reach dual pivot brakes for supreme stopping power. And in case it wasn't clear, this bike is not for sale.... It has a 53cm frame making it damn near perfect for me! the bike is from 1980-82 when trek was just coming online, as such it's got no signification, making it: The TREK
