With ​Project One​ you will be able to design, through your computer, the colors that will decorate the bicycle frame, choose the matching components and the settings. On screen you will see the availability of each item and delivery date according to availability (it is estimated that the minimum delivery time is 20 days, from there up). From that moment a technical craftsman from the ​Waterloo​ factory will create your picture by hand, leaving your signature stamped on the painting, from there you will travel to Germany where you will be assembled and adjusted the rest of the components that you have selected. :: Trek Madone Although this is the year in news on mountain bikes, ​Trek​ has also shown us some progress on the road. -Mountain biking training plans​ ​are available to the mountain bike kit.

Superfly​ approaches the general public with a new version in cheaper ​aluminum​ that allows us to enjoy the benefits of the Superfly​ without having to scratch both the pocket and the carbon models. Best ​bicycle tires​ and inner tubes the best bike us must be focused

:: Trek Lush 29er Trek​ was one of the pioneers in adapting its catalog to​ the female world​ and not only thinking about changing colors, but designing components and​ specific bicycles for women​ , hence the concept of​ WSD​ (Women's Specific Design). ​Trek​ at its R & D center studies female anatomy to achieve optimal comfort ranges for women.
