From the very beginning of the Hybrid forum it has been kind of dominated by the Trek. Panthers007 & Myself were the driving force behind the hybrid forum as well as others. We are both Trek FX owners and many of the original postings are based from the view of the Trek hybrids. I have no idea if that set the trend for Trek domination of if the bike is just a great value in the production hybrid environment these days. Never the less I see very little negative opinions on the Trek hybrid. I will however say I have seen some very killer hybrids in this forum as well as some great modifications regardless of what brand it is.
