Thanks FB! It's an oldie so that wobble, which I will now call runout, is probably a wear issue. One only put +/- 750 mi on it but it has been around and I'm sure it was a regular rider for a while....

Hey-oh!

Awhile back I was riding down the road and noticed my chain intermittently rubbing on my FD. Of course I looked down in traffic and ran into the back of a car! All was forgiven and I...

Thanx for the lightning response! So the 440 is at least a comfy and possible more versatile ride but not high quality. I really want him to get the 564 but the "dealer" wouldn't budge at $175. From...

Thanks for the reply redtires. I don't really want it actually. I'm more of an old steel honk. Thought it might be worth enough to ride for a bit and resell for a bit more. I do have a 1990? Trek...

Cool thanx for the great info. It seems you've really got to investigate these cheaper bikes to find out what's been done to them over the years. I found a bike for 25 bux that has some 105 stuff and...

I've found a larger supply of ladies' bikes than men's bikes in my area and they're always substantially cheaper. I was thinking of upgrading or matching components and thought maybe I can grab them...

Good question. I didn't think a bike like this would have any braze-ons so I guess they were clamped. Sorry I can't get any pics but from my description what price range am I looking at? Btw I think...
