I'm confused. Trek says it's for the "World's greatest cyclist", then they mention a "Mr. Armstrong". Someone's gonna be pissed when they find out Lance has his bike.

That bike costs and arm and a leg, can't go fast, can go long distances, can handle anything offroad, is not adaptable to bad weather, and can't even be comfortable. Its a worthless bike, but I suppose a light useless bike is better than a heavy useless bike because its easier to move outta the way.

That bike costs an arm and a leg, can't go fast, can't go long distances, can't handle anything offroad, can't do tricks, is not adaptable to bad weather, is a thief magnet, and can't even be comfortable. Its a worthless bike, but I suppose a light useless bike is better than a heavy useless bike because its easier to move outta the way.
I bet it can go just as far as any other ss with the same ratio.
It is as adaptable to bad weather as any other bike, front fender attaches to down tube, rear fender attaches to seat post, I don't know what else you would need.
It's probably just as comfortable as any other bike in the world. Seat, seat position, handlebars, bar position are the keys things, this bike has them all and they can be adjusted or replaced as desired.
This bike is worth more than your intellect based on your last post.
Only thing that would seem off is the cheap a** pedals, but I suppose this bike is for the rich guy who asks the bike shop for there most expensive comfort bike to store in his garage, not to actually ride regularly.

it's a standard 130bcd crank. All you would need is to change out the belt specific ring for a regular chainring. The bb will probably be off though cause a belt won't be running 42mm chainline.

Um... I bet it can go just as fast as any other ss bike with the same ratio so not sure why you say that.
