Alpe d’Huez:
LeMond Racing Cycles was a bicycle manufacturer founded by Greg LeMond, an American winner of the Tour de France. LeMond offered geometry based on the racing frames he used in competition, which had a longer top tube and wheelbase in an otherwise traditional lightweight steel frame. This was to stretch out the rider on the bicycle, with the intent of both lowering the frontal area presented to the wind, and optimizing power and stability. From 1995 until February 2010 Trek licensed LeMond's name for use on a line of its bicycles, but this bike is a pre-Trek, 1990. The Alpe d'huez is a road bike, a cross bike, a TT bike, a beginner bike designed mostly for comfort and most of all this triple crank can climb!

American Comp-Lite:
American Bicycle Manufacturing in St Cloud, Minnesota. In the 80's ABM built some of the best frames that could be had. They were very expensive but worth it! The Comp Lite was probably their most popular model. American was one of the earlier companies to use aluminum for mountain bike construction. Instead of using thin-walled large-diameter tubing (7000) which was common with Klein and Cannnondale frames of the time, American opted thicker-walled smaller-diameter (6061) tubes. This gives the frame the look of an over-sized steel frame, but the large weld beads give it away as aluminum. The American frame was intended to sell for a lower price than the other models, and was offered for this price only with a "brushed" finish. There was no other finishing done to the frame and if it got dirty enough that it would not hose off well, we were instructed to brush it with a Scotch Brite pad. The Comp Lite continued on with a fixed head and was about $1500 (no groupo, rim or tires). The Comp Lite and M-16 continue on today at $1800 each.

I have the 1990 Comp Lite frame which sold for $720, angles of 71/73 and 16" stays. They were available in 3 sizes, I have the small frame, 6061 T6, show welds & hand polished. Not the 7000 series aluminum which is used to make beer & soda cans! The small size is perfect for racing because you want to muscle the bike, it is very quick & responsive. Good for someone 5’ to 5’ 6”.
The rear tire clearance on this mountain bike is improved to accept the larger 2.5" tires. Bontrager rims & tires are double butted spoke.
Shimano Deore DX thumb shifters, Longer 17.5” Cook Bros. cranks.
Longer Specialized stem & forever sealed hubs and RockShox front springs. The skewer act as tire levers.
Comes with a manual seat post spring to lower during downhill. Brake handles are 4” right & 2” feather-left XTR. One piece Scott bar.
The granny gear is a super low 19 tooth Mule! It can climb any incline, i.e. Canyon cliff side 80 degree. Reflective tape is for night riding safety.

These bikes are pretty easy to spot by looking at the show or beauty welds. They are large "toothpaste" welds or “fish scales” welds that were left unfinished. All ABM bikes started to use a replaceable derailleur hanger. The hanger can be easily replaced by bolting on a new hanger in case of accident. This is a very common feature on today's aluminum bikes.
