Back in 1990, I spent every nickel I had on a shiny neon Trek 830...I really wanted the aluminum 6000, or the carbon 8900, but there was no way that was gonna happen.
My $369 investment turned out pretty well though...the bike carried me through a bunch of states, all sorts of punishment, and put a smile on my face during the peak of my early MTB years.
As most things go, it was eventually replaced in the line up, and the bare frame has been hanging in my garage for more than 10 years. After looking at it a while back, I decided it deserved to be put back together, but this time with a bit of flair....
I know some of you guys won't see the point, but it really put a grin on my face to roll it out of the garage this morning.
