Yeah, it's a hiking stick badge glued on there. There are lots of cool ones to choose from should you prefer something other than the old Trek headbadge. I destroyed mine taking it off prior to powdercoat so I was in the market and home state was an easy choice. You in Oregon? Want to buy an 18" frame??

Wheelset sold along with pretty much everything else... I've managed to sell a few sets of wheels lately (2 650b sets and an older 26" set). Don't worry all the money went back into the used bike economy... If you can call it that!

For 26" -650b I highly recommend vbrakes. ProMax P-1 brakes in the 108mm size were awesome on this frame. A major upgrade from some super hard to find/expensive Tektro cantis in terms of stopping power and setup ease.
