1988

Never seen a 900 before. Oddly enough, the specification is lower than any of the 800 series mountain bikes that year.

At a rummage sale, as is, probably won't fetch much. $20-30?

That logo style debuted in 1988.

Yep, Tugrul nailed it. That's also the only year for the Trek 900.

Could possibly pull $100 in some locales with new tires and better saddle, assuming everything works well.

Yep, its a 1988 Trek 900. Low end model, despite the high number. The Trek name should be enough to draw some interest. Tange 5 frame, high ten steel fork. Should be an easy sell.
