Trek 520/620/720 Touring

The Trek 720 Touring from the early 80's is still regarded as one of the best touring bikes...if you can find one. I have a 1983 Trek 620 Touring (I couldn't afford the 720 back then) and it's still an excellent touring/commuting bike. The 520 was the most common of the 3 models and can still be found used. It's the model that has evolved into today's Trek 520 touring bike. It was a good bike back then so it's no wonder that it's now one of the most popular touring bikes after 25 years. So, if you're looking for a bike with some vintage class that can still catch the attention of touring enthusiasts and some oohs and ahs from bike shop techies the same age as the bike, check them out at www.vintage-trek.com.
