Hi. I recently purchased what I think is a Burley Rumba, circa 2000. It has an oval shaped bottom tube (whatever it's called.... the tube that connects the captain and stoker BBs).
I was on a ride this weekend, and met a fellow with a Trek T200 (I think that was the model), and the frames were identical, including the oval bottom tube....
Did I buy a rebadged Trek? I don't care too much since we're having a lot of fun on the bike (and that, after all, was the point in getting it (tool not a jewel, etc. etc...)), but I am curious.
Any tell-tale signs to determine the provenance of my Rumba200?
