Just bought a old trek that looks like it was never cleaned a day in its life. So I started off by cleaning the Shi# out of it.Then Slapped some new tires on it with a Xm260 lll rim on the front and just kept the Original rim on it but greased the bearings really well. Got new bearings for the crank. And stuck a Mountain series 200 seat on it. Then to set it off I threw some GT handle Bars on it If anyone has any ideas for what to do next, I would like to hear em. Thanks avid riders.

My first "real" mountain bike was an 820. I abused the shit out of that bike, and it might have been the most reliable bike I've ever owned.

Level your saddle, then ride the wheels off it.

I need a good ISIS BB to utilize the RF cranks I poached. Phugging shimano XT chains take a pin instead of a quick link. Gah! Got my hub fixed and the only thing holding me back is a chain.

Can't you use a quick link anyway?
