Bikes: '23 Black Mtn MC, '87 Bruce Gordon Chinook, '08 Jamis Aurora, '86 Trek 560, '97 Mongoose Rockadile, & '91 Trek 750

Now with pictures...

Well, I did a count this morning 15 bikes total, 8 to sell, 6 completed and mine/my wife's, 1 to decide on. I will likely tackle these first because they will be the most fun.

'91 Trek 750 - 20.5" frame, lugged, to convert to drops, I think:


Lemond Tourmalet (56" frame, Reynolds 525, needs paint, refurb):


'94 Trek 750 (19.5" frame, True Temper OX, great condition, just bought last night):

Commuter/College bike fixups to sell:
Ladies lugged Schwinn Traveler (half started)
DiamondBack low end hybrid
Schwinn High Sierra lugged mountain to mountain hybrid (small frame, swap to rigid fork)

Nicer Stuff:
Lemond Tourmalet (Frame paint in bad shape, components cleaning up well to sell)
'91 Trek Lugged 750 (convert to drops, wheels completely done)
Maybe a '94 Trek 750 will see tonight

Nicest Stuff:
Bruce Gordon Chinook (frame completely repainted/restored, have to decide to go period Shimano or newish Shimano)

And I want this to be the winter I start to build wheels again but wheel see.
