I'm just curious if anyone can tell me the year of this Trek based on the color scheme. I found a list on vintage-trek.com that explains years by model and colors, but unless I've missed it, I haven't noticed any with this color scheme. Also, if it's figured out, what would it be worth? It hasn't been tuned up in a couple years but is in otherwise good condition. I'm looking to get a bike for my Dad for a reasonable price. He currently has an early 80's Schwinn Varsity 10-speed road bike, but being a month shy of 68 years old, the drop bars (even on the flat part) put him too far down and forward.

I don't currently have any other information aside from this one picture.

Any info and advice is much appreciated.

After a bit more research, I believe it's a 1995. Looking at the list I mentioned previously, it says one of the two color schemes for '95 is "ice blue/ice violet fade with white decals". I'm assuming that must be what the colors on this bike are considered as I wasn't able to find any others on the list with blue and any variation of purple fade mentioned.

So, if I'm able to do any basic tune-ups myself, what would be a reasonable purchase price?

Thanks again in advance!

Here are the specs and MSRP, etc. according to Bikepedia...

1995 Trek 700 - BikePedia

If the crankset is original on this bike, the cranks might be among those included in this safety recall: CPSC, Shimano Announce Recall of Bicycle Components | CPSC.gov

I had a similar Trek Multitrack that had the recalled cranks and I was able to get them replaced at my LBS.

The first consideration should be whether the bike fits.

...and just like like that, it's no longer available from the seller. Oh well. Thanks for the replies all!

Because he is familiar with the Schwinn you may want to consider a 90 degree or adjustable neck to raise the handlebars.
