The UO 14 is one I baby a bit as I've had it for years and I'm afraid that it's getting frail with age but I do have a few other steel bikes that I could convert. They all are set up for road though so I would need to put cantilever or V brakes on them to fit the wider tires.

I just worry about those skinny forks, would they be OK on trails?
