Re: Ive Bought Another Bike, But What is It? Possibly a Trek

I would say it's a bonded Trek

Yep looks like a 97 trek 8000 SHX, my mate got one as an insurance replacement for his 96 zaskar when it was stolen, wouldve had a mix of lx/xt and indy sl's iirc, had yellow decals!

Update March 1st

bike came yesterday morning, ive given it a quick polish and fitted the cranks from my zaskar for now. some of the parts are in fantastic condition



















welds on this thing are beautiful, smooth like my old GT Xizang





1996 i presume, from what i can tell this bike was originally red
