My baby re-built and riding once again. I bought her new in '89, and put on over 5000miles on it. I also bought a new wheelset for it (8-spd Dura-Ace with ISO-C III rims) and rode 3000 more miles on it, then I got a full time job and a car and family (my brother had it for a bit, chipped it to hell), ect. I took it with me to Japan and re-built it with some new parts but the rims cracked and it sat in pieces for 4 years untill this fall. I FINALLY bought the finishing parts to re-build it a 3rd time. She still rides like a dream and is really fast. First ride was 16miles and went well. It's been so long since I rode thin tires. I love it!!
Anyway, here are the specs:
1988 Trek 400, lugged steel
105 headset
Ultegra cranks (6500, 172.5mm, older 105 chainrings)

Unigluide cassette, 12-21
Cinelli stem and 46cm bar
