Bikes: I have been riding a Trek 800Sport MTB to work since 2002. Before that, I had an old Raleigh. I purchased a Trek 2.1 in early July, 2009. I use this bike for recreation. The Trek 800 is my utility bike.
did you find out who made the frame? I have one too. AM2K024520. It is outfitted as a road bike, but with a 135cm spacing in the rear, I suspect it was originally intended as a tourer. The bicycle shop that sold this bike originally says it was a Barracuda frame, probably mid to late nineties. He put an old Deore XT rear hub on the rear and a mid- to late-nineties Ultegra (Shimano 600) front hub. A Deore XT front derailleur and a Dura Ace rear. An eight speed Shimano 600 brifters controlled a Dura Ace front and EX500 rear brake. I had to rebuild the wheels. The rims were shot.
If you verified the manufacturer, I'd be interested in knowing, especially if there are any stats on the frame dimensions. I can measure, but am uncertain of the head tube and seat tube angles.
