I'd love to see pics of your bike too OldschoolTrek!

I know this project isn't your typical "steel is real" classic Italian or English or French or even USA made frame, but it's becoming apparent that a lot of folks are rocking "composite" frames similar to mine. Pooling ideas and resources on how to preserve, care for and refurbish frames like this seems to fit in well with the C&V ethic, regardless of materials. Please, anyone that wishes to contribute ideas, tips or just pics of your neo-classic Treks, please feel free. I sure appreciate seeing what you've done with them.

It was Christmas at the shop earlier today. I received the Ritchey fork, Cane Creek S-6 headset, TRP dual-pivot brakes and Cinelli carbon bar tape I ordered. There's a lot of other stuff going too, so I wasn't able to do much with it, nor was I able to get to that paint stripping. Don't worry though...I'm motivated to get this rig running by Spring, and it shouldn't take too long considering that I'm not going for anything too fancy.
