Completed yesterday. B-day present for my GF. Most importantly..it fits her. Gravel-ish bike with the right top tube length and will run 38-42mm road or gravel tires.

2007 Trek 7.5FX WSD. Previous owner never rode it..probably doesn't have 50 miles on it.

Ultegra 6503 3x9 shifters, Tektro 510 canti's, Koolstop pads, Tiagra front** and rear derailleurs, OEM 3x crank, upgraded to 11x30 cassette. Shimano 324 SPD pedals. OEM saddle..we'll see how it rides. It'll probably get swapped out for a Brooks that fits her well. Gravelking Slicks 700x38mm. Fast bike!

** (due to 45mm chainline of the Tiagra derailleur and 50mm chainline of the OEM crank, I couldn't get the 11 & 12 on the cassette combo with large chainring to play well with the Tiagra front derailleur. I ended up reverting back to the stock derailleur in combination with a Jtek Shiftmate 7..works great now!)
