I've got the same bike, same color. 560 Pro, right? 1986. I keep trying to sell it but my son won't let me. I've got quite a few bikes he won't be interested in, but this one he expects to inherit. I rode it a few months ago with him - just casual - and was surprised how much I liked it.

But for me, it was a Trek 790 MultiTrack with drop bars that I could never get comfortable on. Weird sizing, very long top tube, just strange. The components and wheels on mine were fine, and I made a real effort to make it work ergonomically, but never warmed up to it.
