Afternoon all.
New member here. Just started a project to rebuild a 1999 TREK 5200 in USPS livery as ridden by the maligned Mr Armstrong.
Always wanted this bike before the drugs were proven and despite that I still think it is an iconic bike. But thats just me.
Anyway. I bought the frameset last year and so gar have been unable to get much time for the build however I have put a set of Ksyrium heliums on and Deda stem and bars. I was going to do a neo retro build but now not sure if I should go with a full original restoration?!
I would be interested in any thoughts or guidance on where I should go with it.
