Here are some pictures of my old bike.
First off anyone have any ideas what year this bike is? I'm thinking around mid to late 90's but I don't know for sure. The bike has a 1" steer tube and has its setup with the original fork on the stand it has a threaded headset. You can see in the other pics that I have a Indy C fork for the bike that has a threadless steertube, but I just removed this so that the bike would work on the trainer stand and I noticed that the steertube on the Indy C is bent pretty bad.
The bike is 4130 Cro-Mo frame, and the only real damage is on the driveside under the chain, I don't think this will really weaken the frame but I thought I'd show you guys and see what you think.
From when I got the bike till now its had a bunch of parts replaced but really its still alot of lower end shimano parts. The brakes however are fairly new they are Deore V-Brakes, the levers on the bike are Tektro because I swapped them from my other bike to put the Deores with my BB7's.
Anyways what do you guys think, is this bike worth making a SS out of? should I try to find a 1" threadless fork? or should I just use it to test SSing?
Finally here are the pics
