I think alot of the hate is because of Lance Armstrong. People no longer want to be associated with a bicycle company that sponsored him. Quite frankly, I don't like the color of their bikes in general because they are often in black or grey. Knock on wood, I was going to buy a Trek this year because it was in sky blue, my favorite color.
Since there are so many Treks on the street, they lost alot of their bling.
Actually, in my area Specialized outnumbers Trek by about 4 to 1.There's one Trek dealer within reasonable driving distance, but I can't drive more than 15 miles in any direction without passing a Spesh dealer.
And how about that new special order Contador S-Works frame. Pretty nifty, wouldn't you say?
