Favorite Trail:
Canal Loop, KY / Corujo, Vigo Spain
Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$5500.00
Purchased At:
Bikes and Moore, Hopkinsville, KY
Strengths:
This Frame comes with a lifetime warranty. The Bike is extremely light @ 23.8 pounds. There is nothing you can really do to this bike to make it any more perfect. I love everything about this bike. The people at Bikes and Moore were excellent when it came down to tuning it for me.
Weaknesses:
The selection of tires could be better. On my first 10 minutes of riding I crashed do to over inflation of the tires. You can save at least another pound by mounting a good set of tubeless tires, the rims will do both. I also found the saddle to be too stiff and will replacec it with a selle Italia like on my other rides.
Similar Products Used:
I also ride a Kona Kula, full XTR and Rock Shox SID forks and a Specialized ALLEZ Road bike.
Bike Setup:
Stock from Trek
Bottom Line:
This bike is a perfect racer straight out of the box. If you save up enough ($5500) you will enjoy a superb ride and will not have to replace anything on it to make it better. PERFECT!!!
