Finally done. Yup, even with bicycles, 20% of the work takes 80% of the time. So the Saved From the Dump Trek 930 has become my home drop bar'd mtn bike. The Trek 850 that has served that purpose is going to my son's place to be my zero bike there.

As found, except I tore the shot saddle cover off first day.



And as of today. I just completed the brake lever hoods and the bar tape. Ready for adventures.



I really like the "Black Forest Green" and was able to conjure a suitable touch up paint. With the gold and purple in the decals I decided to lean towards the "low energy" end of the visible light spectrum with reds and browns for saddle cover, hoods, tire stripes, etc (except for the blue bulb on my clown horn). I've grown quite fond of the lugged frame, the last in the line. The "cockpit" is a direct transfer from my 850 which now has the flat bar this bike came with. I've also grown quite fond of the thumb shifters mounted in the drops. MANY miles that way.
