Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer?

Trek's website lists track bike as a new model

I went to their website to look at their basic road bikes and saw that they had a link for a track bike. On the main page, the vertical column lists the different types: performance road, commuter, cross, track, tandem, etc. All the links work except for the track one.

It would be very interesting to see what price they will charge, anyone care to guess? They'd probably sell a lot more if they offered them in different colors (like Steve Jobs did with Macintosh).

looks like it has the same components as the lemond, which is also made by trek.

That frame looks nice, but I can't get into Treks for some reason. If I were to buy one, I'd repaint it.

Their design team needs a swift kick in the pants. The whole thing reminds me of my dad's beach cruiser.

funny that they use 'bikes' on their website when they only have one model to choose from.

some part of me distrusts those wheels on road roads and I agree on the top tube.. it kinda looks like the small to big top tubes on the new cruiser type bikes

i'd still ride it

that thing sells for about $1200 (Kinda seems like a lot..)but trek won't make very many of them i'm sure. It's listed on their dealer website so they are deffinitely making them although not avail yet. The wheels are actually really decent. I have em on my lemond and they survived being hit by a car at 20mph. really light too....
