December 29th, 2008I’m trying to find out the model year of my Trek bike?
richabrajano asked:
It's an 820 Mountain Track. hardtail mountain bike. It is two tone in color. The front part of the frame is kind of royal blue and then it fades to a purpleish blue to the back of the frame. it has a cro-moly frame, cantilever brakes, 21 speed with grip shifters. The tires are the originals and say "trek connection. The top tube says Mountain Track and the seat tube has 820 on it. Really want to know the year. Thanks.

There is a web-site for vintage Treks.
Go to Google.com, type in Vintage Trek, and the web-site should come up.
It sounds like it is about 12 to 15 years old.
I have a trek 930 that is very close to yours.

Sounds just like my old rusty 820 that I bought in late1993 or early 1994. Still have it; front derailleur reads Shimano Altus and the rear is Shimano Acera X. If you do have the original brake pads and tires, CHANGE THEM IMMEDIATELY! They are way too old to be safe as rubber dry rots, regardless of use.
