Trek 750 (1992) build I recently completed

I’ve had this one for about 7 years, had to shelf it a while back after the original Matrix rear wheel was stolen. I purchased it via eBay from Arizona, shipped to NYC, and had been using it, mostly stock, as a w33d delivery whip.

Switched over to my 1400 I converted into a 1x w riser bars and a thumbie friction shifter until I bought a brand new CaadX and threw on a set of ksyrium allroads. The cannondale had been my only working ride for the last 5 years while the old Treks lay dormant, completely disassembled, parts bagged, and tucked away in my closet.

Got the gumption last summer to start shopping for new parts to bring the 750 back but “better.”

The build is relatively lightweight, comfy, and zippy. The tires like the streets and whatever unpaved surface I can find in the city, usually prospect park, typically the horse path, they handle the bumpy lawns pretty well.

I need to trim the bars a bit, might upgrade the stem at some point, helicopter tape will be applied in a few high lockup contact spots.

But yeah, enjoy my contribution to the spirit.
