Bike identification
 

http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=423618I bought this bike at a garage sale. It has trek decals in it but not sure of the model. The year should be 2000.
Can someone help? Thanks a lot

What's the headbadge say? Take that and Google,or try looking it up here:
BikePedia

It is a trek headbage appare try used around 2000.
i did not find this specific model on bikepedia

That X-shaped top tube(s) combo looks pretty unique.

I wonder if that was an early model of what later became the Y-Foil.

What's the number on the headtube?

Post a photo of the bike showing the other side of it.

No Numbers on the head tube.
there is an HC label on the baci of the Seat tube. See pic
Below the bottom bracket there is a number (actually 2): 6606 J9806

Underneath the Trek 'T' transfer on the head tube it looks like there's another transfer with 9. something, does it 9.8 ?

I wanted to have a look at a photo of the non drive side so I could see the rear disc brake mount, Trek bikes from the early 2000's had a bolt on disc brake mount that other brands don't use.

Yes it says 9.8.
i tok a pic of the rear disc brake too.

This bike isn't a Trek.

Someone has just put some Trek decals on some other bike of unknown make, it doesn't look like it was a very expensive bike either.

A 'HC' decal on a Trek frame refers to the frame being made from carbon, your frame isn't made from carbon.

I'd say the decals are from a early to mid 2000's Trek 9.8 Elite which was made from carbon.

* The rear brake adapter looks to be attached incorrectly.
* The brake rotors are on the wrong way around, the 'arms' on them should be angled in the opposite direction.


I hope you didn't pay too much for this bike.

Thanks for all the info. I only paid 40 $ for the bike.
