Bought this one last sunday for ~£500:
It's a 1994 Trek T100 Double Track, and it's in near perfect condition. The previous owner was a lovely elderly lady, who had been riding it with her husband all over Europe (Mont Ventoux and several other cols). It's been stored indoors for the past ten years, so it's a little dusty, but theres no visible rust and almost no damages to the paint.
The Cambium and the tires are my additions to make it rideable, but other than that everything works flawlessly. I do have a few upgrades planned for it, and they should be on their way in the mail.
My gf and I took it for a spin yesterday, and its great fun, but we really need to practise starting and stopping - tips and tricks are welcome! It's easy to handle once moving, but a little scary in the trafic with the large turning radius and extra length.
Edit: Attached the image instead. Does linking to Google Photos not work?
