This graphite Trek popped up on Gumtree last week for $100 (about £50).
The seller was the original owner, who had bought it new from Velomeister, Los Gatos, California (it still has the shop sticker on the frame).
It's well used (almost every component has been replaced) but the frame itself is in decent condition. The plan is to strip it down, refurbish the frame, and hunt down the original Deore DX / XT components, rigid fork etc.
It also has blue anodised Velocity rims on it, which were built locally here in NSW. I don't know anything about Velocity rims, are they any good?
