'87 WTB-Trek Team Bike

One of my favorite bikes. These rare oddities were a collaboration between big Trek and the small, innovative and ultra-high end WTB. Unique to these team frames is the custom BB mod for press-in bearings (it's got the full grease guard internals), the braze-on Dura Ace FD, and hidden below the shell is a added stainless steel guide (looks like Charlie's work) to allow a toggle cam under the chainstays. Its not the prettiest bike for sure, but its a neat old race bike full of character from the days when Trek and WTB teamed up for a season.
