Mike D’s 1987 Trek Elance

Posted

SEXY.

I picked this one up a few years back. Absolutely gorgeous paint, and in fantastic condition! Of course, being a UGA alumni (Go Dawgs!), the red-and black paint scheme is especially appropriate. This bike weighs about 23 lbs. Totally original in every respect – don’t think this one got ridden very much. I took it down to the frame, rebuilt/repacked every bearing, cleaned every part, and now it looks like it did on the showroom floor. Too bad it is a might to small for me, but my daughter loves riding it. This one isn’t so crappy at all – like a fine jewel and built to last!

Thanks Mike

    Beautiful. Nice job on the rebuild. It couldn’t look any cleaner!

    Thanks, John. Every now and then I find one that’s worth that extra level of overhaul and detail. This is possibly the nicest bike in terms of vintage quality AND condition that I have obtained.

    Wow! If this wasn’t called the OLD ten speed gallery, I’d say that bike is brand new. Great find!
