IMG_1511.jpg

Honjo Fenders, Phil Wood Rear Hub, Avocet Saddle, and Rivendell Tires. Heat Treated Rivendell Moustache Bars with Nitto stem and Silver Bar end shifters. Wide range freewheel and very low gearing
I still have the original drop bars if you prefer this set-up
Good working condition, last trip was an overnighter of about 150 miles. 
Pictures taken 02/22/23. I haven't  polished the aluminum nor stainless many of these parts will clean up nicely and shine.. The added Honjo  fenders, bar-end shifters, bars and Nitto stem, and light cost almost as much as I'm asking for the whole bicycle.  The Phil wood rear hub and Wobler Super Champion (Model 58) rim are worth an additional $380 when new. (Wheel was built by Peter White Cycles (a high end wheel specialist builder.)
Frame Number 247748
Located 80 miles north of Seattle,WA on Orcas Island
$400 Firm
Will ship but cost is high these days. The LBS can handle this: "Wildlife Cycles"

If we switch the bars out for drop bars then.. I'd want to keep the moustach bars that are on there now. The brake levers will fit either bar.
Please let me know if you want this done ahead of time and I can make the swRch for you (sans bar tape).
There is also a blue silca pump that I have with nice head that would fit this frame (you'd want a new campy umbrella head to support the upper end) I could include that 'vintage' Silca pump and head for another $37.00 the paint color is a fairly close match.
I also have many - many other parts that could be traded-out/in if there is something you wish to change,
I also have a Rivendell Baggins handlebar bag and a rear Rivendell equivqalent to a Nelso Long flap if you need Bags (I'd price off recent eBay SOLD item $) both are in excellent condition. I also have a brand new spare set of those Rivendell Grant Richardson special mobius spinning color tires (made by Pannaracer for Rivendell) They would go very cheep with the Trek.
