Hello all,
Bit of an odd one this.
I snagged a nearly new Trek 7900 lugged carbon Hybid frame years and years ago. It has been sitting on the shelf patiently waiting.
The 7900 was Trek's top of the line Hybrid in 1995. I have always loved the lugged carbon Trek (more than the OCLV stuff truth be told).
You can see the original bike on Page 58 of the 1995 catalogue here:

Last year I built it into a super-commuter, but in all honesty I just haven't used it at all, so I may as well make space. A lot of the components are literally zero-mile.
The RX100 components have 300 miles on them; they were from another machine I had, which cracked when 300-miles old, so I know the provenance.
I have inner-tube wrapped the tubes and obscured the branding as I was going to be commuting into not the nocest part of town. I have left this on, but obviously it is easily removed. The decals are as per the catalogue bike and mint.

The 7900 was spec'd as an XT equipped "compact" drivetrain. I wanted higher gearing, so I used a vintage 110mm LX chainset.
I machined a custom Ringlé anti-chainsuck thing to also double as a mudguard mount.

I'm after £400 +post for this machine. I'd be better off splitting it, but in all honesty, I don't want to do that.
I don't have it boxed so would need a bit of time to box it. Ships at cost, or delivery by negotiation.
