    1990/92 GT avalanche and karakorum

    Not trying to offend anybody but made in Taiwan is a disappointment to me for higher end steel framed early mid 90's era bikes branded under a U.S. manufacturer. Maybe because most everything in the modern era is pretty much the same Taiwan scenario....

    On balance, I still am not a fan of e-bikes (previously known as ‘I just don’t get E bikes’)

    I don't understand this thread anymore....the sight is called RETROBIKE....I responded to one comment (my mistake). If you want to keep talking up your E-bike then go to a modern E-bike rider group blog. I would imagine and hope most enthusiast on this sight including me can give a rats ass...

    Yes they have there place but not on people powered hiking or single track. They belong on motorized trails or parks with other motorized vehicles

The reality is people with the mentioned issues are outnumbered 100 to 1 by people who just don't want to put forth...

    Question about steel frame quality

    That may be your opinion and your entitled to it but ask a bontrager fan or a GT fan if welding disc tabs on a race or race lite or on a non disc Zaskar, psyclone or xingzag would fly. Just saying if you want disc brakes then get a late 90's model mtb where disc brakes by most all manufactures...

    Question about steel frame quality

    Trek unfortunately is the boogie man to many vintage enthusiast. Damn the quality, craftsmanship, artistic beauty and durability of their lugged steel framed 990 to 930 "Singletrack" mtb's that were manufactured and made in the U.S.A. Nothing on those frames were outsourced at all. My first...
