Trek Mountain Bike Rebuild, by Tim Kinney

You can make a nice City bike or touring bike out of an old mountain bike from the era when they had a rigid fork (a cheap suspension fork is the spawn of Satan).

I recently repainted and rebuilt and old Trek MTB for my nephew. I painted it in Camaro Gold, which has a dull retro look to it.  Brown decals were clear coated.
