More Info:
I decided I wanted what would now be called a gravel bike, but it would be a classic bike and only use the parts I had lying about. It might be fun to haul around on vacation. I call it what it is, an all purpose bike. I started with a (not terribly sought after) 1982 Trek 500 frame. It has three main tubes of Reynolds 501 (seamed cromoly) with Tange cromoly fork and stays. This was what I call one of their kit frames; Trek built the three main tubes and joined a rear triangle built by Tange who also made the fork. The lugs are by Trek. A good choice for this project as it has a longish wheelbase and can handle fat tires. The rear derailleur is a strange duck, being a 3 pulley Suntour, It seemed a fun choice, Front derailleur and shifters are also Suntour. The crank is an inexpensive triple by Tracer. The wheels are 700c with wide rimes and 700-35 cyclecross tires. It came out weighing a bit porky at 26 1/2 pounds.
