Question:
I'd like to buy a Trek 720 Multitrack just like the one I had as a kid. Trek 720 Multitrack was most surely a road frame with flat bars and cantilever brakes. I remember it was one of the original hybrids. I think mine was a 1994. Was the Trek 720 Multitrack originally a touring bike?
Answer:
Yup. The original Trek 720 was introduced in 1981 as a touring geometry frame built from Reynolds 531 tubing. The first year of production had Gran-Compe centerpulls and Suntour derailleurs, but subsequent years used cantilever brakes (Gran-Compe or Shimano) and Huret duopar derailleurs. After the first year they also had braze-ons for front and rear racks installed, and the Andrew Hauge brake bridge had a nice threaded hole to which you could mount your fenders..
