Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Old Treks?..

Were did the model like "Elance" fall in the Trek line in the mid-late 80s? I'm not familar with the Trek line of then 80s, so I'm asking more in terms of low, mid, high, top of the line kind of ranking. What component group (or range of groups) did it come with? I did a little research and it seems they were 531 frames, but that doesn't necessarily mean they were good. Were they hand or machine built? Any info any of you might know would be great.

Have a look at www.vintage-trek.com - they've got all the catalogs from the 80s online.
