Here you are......
It's not much to look at, but it's carried me faithfully for quite some time and it's comfy to boot. |
Here is my 09 fuji Crosstown 4.0 with a few upgrades including Forte Soft Tail Seat, Forte Aluminum Seatpost, Forte flat mountain bike bars, Rack, Trunk bag, and my FAT lock. lol.

Cheap enough not to shed many tears if it is stolen (also way to large, though some how feels right), but it is still a fun ride.

Not long after posting my Mongoose, I lucked out and caught my landlord throwing out a Trek 820 in my size. After swapping all the parts and making a few changes (Avocet M30, LX hubs laced to Mavic rims, Velo Orange Anti-Theft skewers, Velo Orange squeal free brake pads, and On-One Midges bars), this is how she sits:

Throwing out old steel Treks should be a punishable offense.

My 2in1 Fuji Royale (1980). I need to find a second frame, so I don't have to rebuild my bike all the time. I dont even know which one I like better ss or fg. Right now I have to complete my ss build: it needs front or rear rack and a saddlebag.

I've gotta agree with you. Worst yet is that besides having tires that had obviously been left flat for years, and plenty of dust and spider webs, the bike was in practically new condition and perfectly usable with only a light dusting and some air in the tires. Even low end steel Treks such as this are good useful bikes. It was the property of a long ago evicted tenant, and amazingly much of the usable stuff left behind just gets tossed in the dumpster.

If you find another one, I will PM you my address and a sum of money. :) I am sure an old 820 frame is better than the Nashbar I am riding around now.

Attachment 129188My regular commuter is out of commission for now, so I've taken to my fixie. Cheap and simple, and does the job fine for short trips.
