Bikes: 1987 Woodrup Competition - 2025 Trek Checkpoint SL 6 Gen 3 - 1987 Lotus Legend - 2024 Trek Emonda ALR Rim Brake - 1980 Trek 510 - 1988 Cannondale SR500 - 1985 Trek 670 - 1982 Trek 730

So, neither of these two are remotely mostly original. Not that it matters after 40 years, but wow. Another "this'll do.." parts swap affair. Naturally, with this being a 715 also (of 1982 flavor), a comparison must be done.

But first, when in doubt about fixing a delaminating tire, super glue it back together and to the rim...



Extra places for extra security and strength. And yes, I did test ride it like this! 45 PSI again (lol). Brakes worked great!



Can't get enough of that glue job, but look, a slick SR Aero X crankset!
