1995 Trek 2120

Here's a 1995 Trek 2120 with a 57cm frame (center-to-center). I acquired this bicycle on Craigslist along with a small 1987 Centurion Accordo RS (see last picture). Both of them together were posted at $120, but I had to offer $130 for the seller to hold it for me, and then drive about an hour to pick them up. I had planned from the start to trade the Centurion with my friend's bike which I had helped pick out earlier, because I felt that I wasn't able to get her that great of a deal. But I was planning to flip the Trek for some extra cash, until another friend of mine said her brother might be interested in it. So I will probably not ask for much more than $65, just to cover the gas fee and the time I put in to fix it up a little bit.

It's got bonded carbon tubes with aluminum stays, headtube, and fork. I was a little worried about its reliability after reading about older bonded carbon frames, but as you can see, this frame appears to be in a pretty good condition. There are no creaks or visible movement at the joints. Only parts that I put on was the saddle, cheap pedals, chains, and NOS tires. I couldn't get the shifting to be ask crisp and I wanted, and I didn't want  to spend too much time figuring out the problem. The left STI shifter had a loose spring that I had to put back into place, so hopefully that won't turn out to be a big problem either.

Here are a couple pictures of the Centurion Accordo RS. I've already given it to my friend a couple months ago, so the specs are from my memory. This one was also in pretty good condition, although the frame had a few spots of surface rust.

Also, they had put a 7-speed thumb shifter with 6 speed freewheel, and a 3 speed indexed thumb shifter for a non-indexed front derailleur. So I put a NOS Shimano 600 EX downtube shifters.
