looks like internal cable routing is a must have feature in a modern hybrid bike... Love it
is there any other carbon hybrid bike that features internal cable routing?
I hope trek release carbon hybrid bike that based on the trek new madone series frame... the shape of that frame is beautiful..

The Budnitz No. 3 with an Alfine 11 really caught my eye until I read the BikeRumor full review of their experience and the creaking bottom bracket. My next bike will need a compliant steel frame and fork, disc brakes, IGH, and belt drive with minimal to no logos and text on the frame and wheelset. As picky a request as this is, I may have to stick with my Jamis Coda for a long, long time.

THIS is a hybrid! A true mixture of road and mountain bike with seat-tube angle, wheels and bottom bracket height coming from road bikes and head-tube angle, handlebars, tubing and drivetrain coming from mountain bikes. Tire width and chainstays are right in between road and mountain bikes.
The hybrid category has evolved to be almost meaningless anymore, although a lot of different bikes are still called hybrids. Steel framed, 1990's hybrids define the category for me.

Just picked up a late 1990-ish BRC Ricochet which is contemporary to your Trek Multi Track.

I love mine more for the way it fits me like a glove than anything else, but after I decided I didn't care WHAT it looked like, I'm actually quite happy with the looks. In particular, I think the higher stem rise gives it a less "painful to ride" look. I liked the 2013 black/red version too, but I think I'm now addicted to the black/green. I'll get a better pic but for now, since I haven't really done anything to it anyway, here's the site photo.....

This bike shop it's in front of is rather unique. It has zero signage at the front advertising, the shop phone number is not listed, all bikes are order made, opening hours are from 1pm to 8pm, and closed on any day divisable by 5. Three stories high...first floors frame samples, second floor clothes (all casual cycling wear, no so-called kits) Third floor free hot Japanese tea. No twitter, no facebook pages, but there is a beautifully written blog by the owner.

Of course, if you take it all the way, you'll have the proper shoes to wear while riding it too......
