This will be a great bike for some lucky person! I bought this planning to make
it an all-day "credit card" touring bike, but with a 56.5cm top tube it is too
big for me.
This is a Trek 400 lugged steel frame and fork that I believe to be a 1991
model. It is white with red decals. The tubing is TrueTemper RC2 double-butted
chromoly. The fork is 1" threaded. The Trek name is engraved into the seat tube
lug and rear dropouts.
For more information on this frame, visit pages 3 and 4 of the wonderful Vintage
Trek site at:
http://www.vintage-trek.com/images/trek/91/1991TrekCatalog.pdf
This frame measures 56.5 cm from the center of the bottom bracket to the top of
the seat tube (or 55cm from the center of the bottom bracket to the center of
the top tube) with a 56.5cm top tube length. The headtube measures 145mm tall.
There are eyelets on the rear and fork dropouts, as well as on the rear seat
stays. The rear brake cable is routed on the top of the top tube, there are two
sets of water bottle bosses, braze-on downtube cable stops, pump peg, takes a
clamp-on front derailleur, and the horizontal rear dropouts measure 124mm wide.
There are paint chips and scratches as would be expected on a 15 year old used
but very well-maintained frame, but no dents or rust. This will build up to be a
great riding bike, and can be used as a fixed gear or single speed, light
touring, or road bike.
Also included is a new set of Suntour GPX brake levers and brake calipers.
$150 for all picked up in McAlester, or $125 without the brakeset. Pics
available on request.
Thanks,
Frank
