Eeeh... No cantilevers, no mid-fork brazeons, single eyelet up front and I think in back as well, plus the stem shifters and suicide levers. I don't think that's the same frame as the Alyeska (or at least not the most desirable years for it), and not terribly suited for loaded touring IMHO.

Still $115 isn't a bad deal for a 1980s sport-tourer.
