I threw some redished 27 inch alloy wheels on the frame, new handlebars, new chainring & cranks and a slew of other new components. But the frame itself had some potential so I honored a trade in and quickly began working on it. I remember initially admiring the color of the frame but was quickly turned off once I saw that the handlebars were bent, the front wheel was out of true, and the chainring was also bent. He had mentioned that he had a Centurion that had seen some better days and was wondering if I was interested in checking it out and possibly trading it in. I sold it to a young man in Skokie who just needed a commuter. I was able to sell the Trek without waiting too long. I honestly bought it because the weather suddenly became gorgeous and I needed something I could kick around on the trails. I rode the bike for a little bit and then threw it back on Craigslist. I had rebuilt a Trek 360 that I had bought from a guy in Carpentersville about a month ago.
