Ah, the good ol days.

someone here was selling an old GT with the obscure 700D standard which was literally one mm off 650b (meaning it's effectively compatible)


People did weird poo poo attempting early "gravel" (usually called "crossover") bikes back then. (see also: Specialized RockCombo, Bridgestone XO)



(the dropbar version, eg Specialized RockCombo was called the Tachyon and I want one)
