I've dug my worthless piece of crap Trek 8000 out of the depths of the garage £12 on ebay
(if this bonded Ali frame was built by Klein it would be worth a small fortune)

Nick,
am glad for you but I think it will not make you much rich

...but they are very nice frame.

Anyway mine has all the bits fitted that yours lacks,
1. Cable stop for a Top Pull front Mech
2. Cable stop for Rear Canti brake

has someone removed yours ?

No one has removed these bits, there were different models of TREK 8000, and mine lacks these important bits.
Maybe they wanted to save weight

...so mine is definitely much lighter than yours

..the countless hours spent completing the 'frame restoration for yor pet dog' courses have paid well, oh wise and visionary master!.....

Unfortunately I have no dog at home to make this exprement ... but two very lively children

I had the same problem with the front mech on my 7000 and found the problem solver in the pic below. Cant remember where I got it from but I think CRC may do them.

Chris, that's exactly what I'm looking

today with two new parts, stem and headset

sorry for bad pics (there is not enough light in the basement

)

Today BB and crank turn came, DX cantis are also fitted. But the remaining parts must first be sorted

Cheers

solving the problems can sometimes be very simple

Fortunately this TREK has many holes

(I think the fork down should also be red and will not turn green (it's too much :? ))
