Just purchased this '89 Trek 800 Sport for a ratbike project. Has the expected patina of chips and scratches. I assume it was a bargain for $50nzd (30usd)? Are these bikes collectable or nah? Thanks 🙂
$50/$30 is a deal! It is a 1998. Nah on the collectibility.

Not collectible, the 800 is the ‘entry level’ as we like to say politely in the industry.
Lots of cheap components so it’s a good start for an upgrade.
You paid what it’s worth.
That’s not an 89 though. it’s a 1998.
