The Purple Cheetah

Bought this from my co-worker/friend, Gomez for $50. Needed to only add pedals. The bottom bracket might need to be replaced, there is a slight internal wobble that i'm feeling. Not sure if this is a track bike or a road bike, i'm pretty new to bikes.

Frame:
Trek Multitrack 750

Fork/Headset:
Stock?

Crankset/Bottom Bracket:
Stock? No idea..

Pedals:
Generic pedals From a Roadmaster Granite Peak

Drivetrain/Cog/Chainring/Chain:
Shimano Hyperdrive C

Derailleurs/Shifters:
Front derailleur: Shimano STX

Handlebars/Stem:
Stock?

Saddle/Seatpost:
Stock

Accessories:
bottle cage, some type of holder for ulock or portable bike pump

it's an old mountain bike with slick tires. front wheel's on backwards, quick-release lever should be on the non-drive side. not really an issue with function, it's just how it's intended to be. tire is on forward though, so flip that too if you flip the wheel around. This could end up being a really cool vintage mountain bike build if you take your time and keep learning.

Yeah i flipped the wheel because i saw the treads on the tie looked [directional]. I'm getting the quick release taken off as soon as possible

good call. tires on right, you can also just unscrew the qr and flip it around. why are you getting rid of it? anti-theft? unless you get a bew wheel you'll need a whole axle conversion kit and im not sure they're available for those hubs.
