I preferred last years colours on the TT bikes. These aren't really inspiring. :?

And as usual no big changes at Trek.

I see that Klein (very similar to the old OCLVs) has an integrated headset.

Looks good !
Am I seeing this right ? Looks like finally a Trek built CF full frame with replaceable der hanger on the Klein.

I agree. I'd like to see a lot more color options. Seems a lot of the high end bikes these days are using a lot more black, if trek/klein could follow suit & maybe offer some flat options i think it would do a lot for their appeal. It aways seems to me that they are directing their attention to cheerleader girls :wink:

I like the LeMonds, too bad they also come with all those Bontrager parts.

Trek will most likely not give the weights but I would love to know what the prices will be.

The paint schemes on the old Kleins were amongst the most beautiful ever.

Want to bastardize your bike, put bontrager parts on it :)

Im sorry and i dont wish to cause offence but Treks just dont do it for me! Im sure they are very very good bikes but they just dont inspire me i think its because Trek dont take risks in order to set trends. Sure they get bikes out the door but i dont find them inavative.

Not only is that a terrible color scheme this year for the Klein, but gone is the internal cable routing.


It was kind of a pain to deal with, but much more beautiful. All the same, glad I got one when I did.
