All very good points. I'll admit the post in Hot or Not was an after thought and I used a picture I already had. I should have better respected the rules of Hot or Not and took a specific picture for the thread. :)

Hmm. I can't … mention the nonexistent 'rules' so how do I describe this? We are voting on bikes, not accessories so I think (my opinion only, of course!) that it's sometimes, occasionally better, y'know if you remove all of the other stuff, including bottles before photographing your ride. Not that there's anything wrong with your bottle, I was just pointing out that when the bike looks good, some of that other stuff doesn't matter. If you are Cindy Crawford, then a mole is not a mole, it's a beauty mark. But if you're Shrek, then a mole might should be removed… hehehe.
p.s. - Also … Crank in the wrong position and Garmin mounted on front… ;) There IS no wrong position for the crank, and there's nothing wrong with tha garmin. There's only opinions. Just like you say, when the bike looks good it looks good regardless. |

Don't take this personal, and don't get all butt hurt like some are want to do. Your post is just a good example in my opinion.

Do we all get a trophy and banana splits now?

I had that exact Trek years ago. Was my first and only road bike for awhile...then my rain bike / beater / commuter for several more years. Kind of a tank, but it held up to a lot of abuse...
edit: found an old pic http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47b7...D550/ry%3D400/ |

I don't think it's hot either, but it fits and rides well.

I can't believe that Trek isn't getting ripped apart. What happened to this thread?

If you give anything more than a "Not", you have to add "In my opinion". It has become exhausting to defend your own personal opinion these days.

This. "Hot or not" means "only positive comments and everyone gets a participation trophy."

What's your verdict on the Trek, oh wise King Hoternot?
All in my opinion of course ;) |

I dont find older bikes to be appealing (I realize this isn't considered an OLD bike). I dont like the shape of the saddle, angle of the stem or the shape of the bars. I'm on the fence with the crankset/rings. Dont know if I'd rather see an all black crank/rings or all silver crank/rings. Either way, I dont like the split black and silver crank/ring.
All in my opinion of course ;) |
