+===== 1991 6000 =====
+Low end of Trek's aluminum range.  SunTour XC LTD group (1991-?).  Neon yellow.  The pic does not have original components.  None do...

+<blockquote>
+I’ll tell ya, my least favorite bike in the history of Trek is the 1991 6000. It was neon-yellow bike with black splash paint. It was perhaps the worst bike that we ever produced. It didn’t shift well, the brakes sucked. I kept the bike for about 20 years as a memory to never do anything like that again.
