I don't understand the head badge but I sure love the bike. I'm trying not to look at it ANYMORE.

A deal. Treks ride so nicely.


D. Pate -- those headbadges experienced wear. I'd have to look, but my '83 520's headbadge flattened out and peeled forward from the headtube. This one looks funky, but it's not a sign of anything untoward, IME.

I like this funky Trek head badge and have another available with much less character. I could swap them out.

Man I love these. My '83 Trek 25.5" is my most ridden bike. If this was a longer wheelbase version I'd be snapping it up.

At this price, you could have a range of wheelbases from which to select. 520/560/620/720 I have a 520 and 620 myself.

Don't do much riding where a shorter wheelbase is preferrable. That's what the Waterford is for. And I've got a 24" 720 in the rafters I need to build and see if it is as magical as the 25.5" before I can justify yet another.

700c instead of 27", 6spd cog not 5, black anodized rims, original saddle... it's still a pup...

This 560 (f,f,hs) was waiting on my front porch when I got home from work, funky head badge and all. I like it!

9volt did an outstanding job of packing and shipped it quick. I really like the metallic gray/black and the seat tube graphics; it should clean up great. Pleasure doing business with 9volt.
