1983 Trek 850

My first mtb, 1983 Trek 850. Mostly stock apart from saddle and stem. Original cable housing was a ruby red, sorta clear. Loaned the bike out for a few years. Had it back for a bit. Let it go about two years ago to a shop for their display.

That is a unique machine, I like it a lot but couldnt live with that saddle :shock:

a set of bullmoose bars/stem would look the part on this

that is really very nice, I like it.

Thanks. The original saddle was an Avocet, long worn out. Not sure how I ever managed to ride that one that's on it now. Original stem was one of the MTS-100s (I think that's what they were labelled). In any case, a true bullmoose would have been sweet.

I've got a black Sakae swan-neck stem spare if you're interested
May not be 100% period correct but closer than whats fitted

Very cool, be even better if and when you put it back to stock.

that is cool. just do the bike justice and swap the saddle. even if its not period.

cheers for sharing though
