    Help please

    I have searched and searched for the geometry measurements for my old 53 cm Trek 1000. I can find the specs and components list in the Trek archives, but not the measurements.

    Any ideas or does anyone have that info?

    Thanks.

    It's a 2004, but I can't try the serial because I sold it. I was wanting measurements for comparison when looking at a new bike. thanks.

    Here's the site you want, but it doesn't have the geometry anymore [eta: oh duh, you said that]. And, they didn't make a 53 that year, so maybe yours was a 54? In that case, mine's an '06, 54 cm, and I think I have a brochure here. HOWEVER, the 2004 wasn't WSD and mine is....so it might not help at all.

    Tuckerville, that's exactly what I found with no geometry. The weird thing is that none of those pictures/colors match my bike either. I have the owner's manual and the bike shop wrote in the front cover 53 cm! Weird.

    by the way, I have a new appreciation for you riding where you do. After visiting Eureka Springs (for the wedding) and watching those riders fly down those steep hills in all that traffic, WOW. Hubby said "you really have to be skilled to ride here." Saw one guy in particular flying down the street in front of the Basin Park. Right after he flew passed a parked car, they opened their door to get out! yikes

    I too have an '06 catalog I could look at for you. If you have a pic of the bike we can probably tell if it was actually a 52 or a 54.
    ...never met a bike that I didn't wanna ride.

    Oh hon, I don't ride in Eureka!!! That road to Thorncrown Chapel? Killer even in the car!

    The group I ride with is planning to do a little ride in Eureka but I think I'm going to skip it, because I am the reincarnated Hill Slug Supreme!

    Hope the wedding (and the weather) was wonderful!
