My wife picked up a nice 1980 Trek 412 at a garage sale this morning. It even came with an oversized Cannondale seat bag, with a few tools and a couple of spare tubes!! And a good frame pump! While the thrift stores have just about dried up, the garage sale and Craigs List finds are improving. Time to change my game plan!

The bike has a kind of cool serial number: 000041!

This is my second 412 find this year (2009). The other one already has a new home. This one looks to be in really good condition. Needs tires, lever hoods, and cables. I already picked up several pairs of lever hoods from Niagara. Looks like I should have ordered more...
