1983 Trek 700 Frameset plus Tange Levin Headset
I have an amazing made in America Trek 700 frameset that has been sitting in storage for the last 35 years. It has Reynolds 531 tubing and Shimano dropouts. This is an excellent sport-style bike with a relaxed wheelbase and would likely accept tires as wide as 32.
The frame is in overall excellent condition. Completely straight, no dents or dings, and only a few chips and scratches. There is an inch and a half strip of rust on the underside of the left rear dropout. A few of the Reynolds 531 decals are also missing. Aside from that, this frame is a time capsule ready for a full lifetime of riding.
I'm also including the Tange Levin headset. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
Price: $325 plus shipping. I'm based in Southern California if you would like to pick it up.

Pretty bike. You will want to post this in the C & V for sale forum as well. Is there a reason why you left the fixed cup in the frame?
