I went and visited this bike in person last weekend and wasn't too impressed. I was holding out hope that just maybe it would be N.R. instead of G.S. but it wasn't to be. The frame also struck me as being a bit on the crude side compared to other old Trek's I've seen. The bike is in ok shape though and is certainly worth the current price and more. The seller is selling this for a friend, his wife sells a lot of dolls on e-bay. If one of you buys this you may want to consider coaching them a bit on the packing.
