Did Trek drop the T1?
I can't find it on the site. I used to be here: https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/road/track/t1/

I asked my local dealer that a few weeks ago and he said, "It's not available this year" (he looked).
On a side note - they are also a Felt dealer and the TK2 went up to $1900 this year.

Yup, Trek blood-sucking corporation no longer makes the T1. Bummer.

The T1 is not listed as a 2013 model on their website or in any of their 2013 sales literature. It be gone-gone. No close-out '12 models left, either.
Got rid of the lower end Soho IGH bike, higher end 26" mtn bikes, Belleville models, Sawyer. Orange '12 Earl also got dropped; new flavor '13 Earl is pink.

That's just the thinnest etch a sketch line possible.

I still ride/race my 2008 T1 for road training and track racing. It was the last year they were made in the US. It's a shame they aren't making it all any more. It's a nice track bike.

If you can partner with Trek and continue making them, I'm sure you'll get lots of demand.

Maybe people are actually smart consumers and bought street oriented bikes, rather than using a track bike for street use. Heh. Nah, that can't be it...
Low sales killed it.
