Mark,
Well heck, I didn't realize you live right next door in LAKESIDE! Just bring it over. Our shop is not hard to find. We're right on the corner of Cuyamaca and Friendship Dr.. The address is 1997 Friendship Dr. , Ste. "E". That's in between Bradley and Prospect. Our building sits on the NE corner, sink below the street level just a bit. I've probably seen you ride past us while I'm at my workbench in the back of the shop. I see cyclists go by all the time as I'm there working. You can look down into our shop from the street if you wanted to. You can tell our unit a mile away (well almost) by the silver spaceship shaped exhaust stack of the spraybooth sticking over 6' tall above the roof. Can't miss it. Some day I'll get up there and install a set of fins and paint "MOON UNIT" on it for grins! Call ahead if you can. (619)449-5977. Still a little hard to always catch the phone there so let it ring a lot or try back shortly until someone grabs it. Answering machine comming soon.

The El Dorado was a second tier model. The serial numbers on those bikes I'm unfamilier with. Can't really guess the age off hand. |
Brian,
Not sure what model it is. I'll bring it with me some time to a ride, or whenever I finally find your shop. :) Still need to do brake cable guides on the Trek before I put it back together. You are right, it has a replacement fork. The guy I got it from said it had a Chrome fork on it which was all pitted when he got it. It's sporting a Cyclart Cat 3 paint job now. I picked it up for cheap as my buddies wife didn't like it. Right now it just hangs on the wall unless my daughter rides it.
