I've located an ad for a Trek 470 that is identified as being aluminum. The only references to a Trek 470 I can find is a cro-moly construction not aluminum. My Q is (obiviously) were any Trek 470's made of aluminum? This particular one is shown with brifters but I have no idea if they are after market or original equipment. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
