I came in here to say my '88 Expert will go on the block in the Fall/Winter. Here in Mexico. I'm selling off half the fleet, and it didn't make the cut. A '80 Trek 414 beat it out. In part due to paint. The 414 paint is exquisite, and a solid color. The Expert is two-tone, and red(I never liked a red bike). And the old Treks just fit me like no other bike I've ever experienced.
I found this thread on page three. I've come back to say that, with the IM being mentioned a couple times in the best bike of the decade thread, I'm reconsidering. It has my best tires on it, my best pedals, and soon will have my favorite saddle too. And I will put it through the paces.
