I already sold it, but I had for a while this 1992 Specialized Crossroads Trail LX in incredible condition

And another nice one. This was my favourite colour in a bike ever, I had to sell because it was too small for me or my wife. Beautiful metallic purple 1995 Trek 750, the European "Trekking" version with mudguards and lights. I´d love to find one in a 21"

And since I am digging in my archive of previous bikes, another one. 1996 Trek 750, got it in very poor condition and fixed it up. I had to sell when we did our South America tour in 2022 and had no place to store it. Also the "Trekking" version.

Lastly, I am selling this one locally right now. I believe a 1997 although I can´t find any online confirmation, Specialized Crossroads Elite. Already the aluminium version, but before they did the ugly curved top tube.

I have a Mountainbike Action magazine somewhere with some pictures - it was a 29" special feature

These pics are from 1999, September edition. It's a 700c Willits bike, custom made.

So after a good fettling, new old saddle and ridiculously cheap wheels I now have a totally 80's gravel bike..... perhaps I should add
a flexstem for authenticity???think I may have to spray the girvin white tho'. If anyone's interested the wheels are super slick 105 hubs on Mavic Reflex eyeletted rims with dt spokes and white challenge griffo world champ tyres for 35 Elizabeth's!!!!

This build needs the Mantis grips built by the inventor of the gravel bike.

It's a thin line between the original gravelbikes and cyclocross bikes?
But I take the opportunity to 'harvest' some kudo's
The only bike I should never have sold.
