Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Help ID a Trek 1200

A friend of mine wants to buy this bike. He was asking what year I thought it was. I don't have a clue after searching the Trek archives. Anyone have an idea?

Thanks,
Bob

I think that is very late 90's. 1999?
Found this

https://x-stream.fortunecity.com/davi...g/bikepics.htm

Which shows it to be a 2001 model

$675 is a ludicrous price for that bike. Your friend could get a brand new entry level Trek road bike for almost that much. In fact, in 2005 I bought a 2004 Trek 1200 I got the bike brand new for just over $700 if that puts things in perspective.

The seller should sell his camera too since he has no idea how to use it...
