Well a 7.5 is a little more money than that. Next thing you know, I wound up looking at $1,000 bikes that I would be commuting on.
I was tempted to buy a 7.4 this year but in Trek's 2015 FX US line up you run into some awful colors for a bike once you pass the 7.3 model. Maybe they look a lot better in person. If not, there will be a lot of 2015 7.4 and 7.5 for sale a at discounted prices after the 2016's come out.
