He has a grand record I am going to pickup. If the mixte were a grand record I'd get it too. Tempted anyway.

I would, ms. merziac has one, a bit later with the mono DT and Vitus tubing, its very nice. I don't think they made GR mixtes despite my trying to make it one. This one is a proper twin tube one so I would not let it get away, I would think its Vitus or Reynolds, I think all the older Grand Jubilee's were 531.

Make it so.

1986 GT

I've noticed many 520's in this thread for this kind of price or a lot lower. Why are people dumping them? More importantly, why the !@#$% can't I find one in an XL for these kind of prices

A little too "faincy" for my blood. Can anyone ID the model of the stand? Looks like an older model. I may be able to facilitate; I might even cherry-pick some of the "pile of spokes", and/or the Jobst book.

Wheel trueing stand and tensiometer - $160 (Madison Eastside)


Have a park truing stand, wheel smith tensiometer, The Bicycle Wheel book and a pile of spokes all for $160.00. Will not separate! Also includes a Park Wag-1 dishing tool, not pictured.

Mystery Trek in East Lansing, MI, offered for $225, which I think is optimistic. But it looks to be in good shape, and it's my size, and I'm still mad I didn't get the 620 from last year to work out.

Seller says:

Trek road bike, in excellent condition, with only very light use. Late-1980s model 24-inch (61-cm) aluminum frame (Reynolds 531) SunTour Cyclone front and rear derailleurs, with down-tube shifters SR crank (52x40), pedals, stem Rear 6-speed cassette (approx. 14x28) Dia-compe brakes Shimano hubs Rigida rims Water bottle cage Requires replacement handlebar tape and plugs, and brake-lever hoods (which are corroded, as is typical).

I'm thinking there is too much space between the tire and the seat tube for this to be anything but an 80s touring bike; the 531 fork makes me think 6xx or 7xx, and the lack of cantilevers makes me think no later than '84. Brakes are nutted -- didn't that stop before then? The monochrome color without panels would argue against high-end, though. So I really don't know.

Opinions, anyone? Thanks in advance!

It's on Nextdoor, so who knows if the link will work...

Can't be late 80's like the seller says. I have an '86 560 and the font is way more modern than the classic font and with recessed brake nuts.

Make it so, looks good from here, you're probably right on the modeling, is that not good?

This could $700 here in PDX.
