Vintage Trek 660 Reynolds 531 Steel Road Frameset (54cm) – USA-Made Classic with Modern Versatility
Elevate your cycling journey with this authentic vintage Trek 660 frameset—a true relic of American craftsmanship from the golden era of steel road bikes. Crafted in the USA with premium Reynolds 531 lugged steel, this 54cm frame combines timeless durability with retro-inspired design flexibility. Perfect for enthusiasts seeking a blend of classic aesthetics and modern adaptability, its unique 69er dropouts enable seamless single-speed conversions or traditional multi-gear setups, making it ideal for commuters, touring cyclists, or retro build enthusiasts.
Key Features:
– USA-Made Reynolds 531 Steel: Lightweight (6lbs 4oz) yet robust construction for a smooth, responsive ride.
– Versatile Geometry: Traditional 54cm sizing suits riders 5’6″–5’10”, with a classic road geometry optimized for endurance and control.
– 69er Dropouts: Rear hub spacing accommodates both 128mm and 130mm wheels; chain tension bolts allow easy single-speed conversions (bolts not included).
– Battle-Tested Build: Threaded headset (1″), BSA bottom bracket (68mm), and 26.8mm seatpost ensure compatibility with a wide range of components.
Condition & Customization:
This frameset shows its history with minor paint dings from years of use—proof of its resilience—but retains sharp lugs and iconic Trek branding for a distinctive look. The rear derailleur can be routed through the chainstay for clean lines, while the front derailleur’s 28.6mm clamp-on design simplifies upgrades. Ideal for riders craving a custom build that balances nostalgia with practicality, whether commuting through city streets or exploring scenic backroads.
