Good Luck! Hope the Trek is the right size and all you need it to be. Some of the higher end Schwinn Preludes and Premis andSuper Sports do well also, so keep an eye out for those. Some of the Preludes had Columbus Tubing in the 80's.

It's a HUGE bike...but I bought it anyways.

I got it for 80, and I figure I can clean it up, bare minimum, and make some money on it. The guy was the original owner...and extremely eccentric...

He was talking about "fate," and how the bike belonged to me...

crazy stuff...

It needs a bit of work...but I figure I can make it a project, have some fun with it, and sell it...then use the proceeds towards another bike...

Will let you know if I purchase the others...
