I got this Bike for a decent price which I wouldn't categorize as being Dirt cheap, but based upon prices listed on E-bay for Klein's of any vintage I should be able to do well on this one. Apparently Trek continued making the Frames in Chehalis as that is where this one was made. The external routing of the Brake Cable is due to the fact that 2002 was the first year that Klein offered Disk Brakes as an option on this model.

I never intended to ride off road nor even on unpaved roads with either of them, but as an elegant street cruiser that could support my weight and girth.
