That's right, I just bought my new black/red Trek 4100. I know it's not the best bike out there, but it's a great deal and it was my favorite bike in the store. I've already taken it on a few trails and in the woods at my house and it's a lot of fun to ride though the lack of rear shocks is fairly noticable. However, that isn't a major problem. I also rode it on some of the roads around town and it was a lot of fun to ride there though it is of course not a road bike by any means, epecially when I don't even have road tires on it. However, I'm VERY happy with my purchase. What are your thoughts on the new family member?

Oh and I'm installing my 8 function bike computer on soon too.

P.S. I named it 41- how unoriginal :rolleyes: .

Congrats, but you need to take the pic of the one you bought, not from the website.

Yea I'm going to, I'm just working out some kinks in my digital camera right now. But I should have a pic of my own up in a couple days though I might wait until I attach the computer even though that's probably going to be today or tomorrow.
